I have a few rings that I've found and was wanting to know the best way to clean them......Gold and Silver(mainly silver)

You can build an electrolysis unit to clean them. I've used mine several times and get good results on heavier items. Sometimes very delicate, or heavily corroded items are best left alone. More than one ring has fallen apart after cleaning and sometimes almost all detail of a coin will be lost, if it was even there in the first place.....live and learn. Experiment first with stuff you don't mind being dissolved into a worthless, shapeless blob of nothing. Here's a couple of links for building a unit.
