Anyone know anything about this ring

Dug this at a site with graves on it dating back to mid 1700. The ring has no markings and appears to to made of steel. Confederate camp was also on site. I would love a date for the ring

Lol am I reading the original post wrong? How nearby are the grave markers?

Don't worry I have been digging many years and will not dig around a graveyard. I only brought it up to reference the age of the property.
