If only there were a Maker's Mark on reverse. Do you have any idea what it's base metal is...brass, silver, etc?

There is no markings on the back. Seems to be made of brass or whatever flat buttons are made of. Rang up a 14 on the Equinox.

I haven't-- but needs checked out maybe was in a Cracker Jack Box prize but also could be earlier --maybe from a company that gave out rings like others did with Superman rings & etc! Just never know how old some finds are when DUG UP? Good Luck! I hope it is a very good find! Ma
