Go to the "Control Center", which is located at the top of the page across from where it says "Welcome ....". Once there on the left of the page you will see the edit button. Click on it and then you should see the edit signature button appear. Click on it and edit your signature.

That is indeed a ring. I've found a couple of them that look like that.
Good finds.

Yes.

The ring wasn't soldered properly but that's a mail order brass ring very common from about the Civil War to early 20th century.

In fact the wearing of gold rings was discouraged during the Civil War due to gold falling into the hands of the enemy. So these brass wedding rings are common finds at battle sites.

I found one a while back myself. The very good ones are engraved inside.
