Ring find

[Listener]

I found this ring yesterday in the curb strip but didn’t include it because it looked like a cheap copper ring. After a good scrubbing it is stamped S925, yet seems to be copper coated.
Anyone encounter this? Is it sterling?

Try search with Google images or something like that.

Mixed Metal rings appear to be a "thing"... They do this with gold as well... I didn't find anything quite like yours though...
Great 925 find...

That is a really cool ring.
Never seen anything like it.

You’re right about that. Guess silver is silver though discounted.

My avatar is an old ring I found at a 20s-30s logging camp. Its 10k gold and Sterling with a synthetic stone.
Good find you have there!

What machine were you running then ?

That was my first big ring find with the F5, it was about 5-6” deep in a small picnic area used for years. I dont know what was there during the logging camp but the big meadow adjacent to it is where the turnstyle was to turn the small train engines around after unloading the cut logs.

Cool.
Thanks for the reply.
