VERY OLD SILVER RING WITH PRECIOUS STONE?

[Buck(PA)]

Hey guys one of my first few posts on here. Today I got permission to hunt a new property that dates back to the 1850s. Here is a group shot of all of what I got today!

After 15 minutes of hunting I pulled out my first silver ring and it looks to be quite old. Here are a few pics.

Anyone know what kind of stone that is?

Silver!

It has the number "27" on the back of it... anyone know what this means?

Here is the silver knob i found.... any ideas?

Colgate token I found... anyone know the age?

Back of the token

Neat pin that I found... unfortunately I broke the back on it when digging it up

Thanks for the help and thanks for looking guys!!! HH

Hey Buck , Very nice finds indeed ! The ring is very likely Native American , and highly likely Navajo made . the twist wire and other

decorative elements surrounding the bezel , are very typical of the pieces made from the 1940's to 1970's era. The silver designation

of 925 - is a rather later denotation , more like 1960's on I feel . Oh yes , the stone is turquoise . Nice find ! Argentium.

Thanks alot for you help! Any idea about what the 27 is? Thanks again! HH

Hi

27 could be the batch number great finds, is the outher piece a walking cane top
