Help needed with rings & buttons

Hi everyone i could use your expertise with a few items i have found over the past year but havent posted them till now, any information would be helpful. First & Second pic are of a "gold colored ring" with the stamp "Contempo" on the inside. Appears to be in good shape with no corrosion, gold plated? or gold? Has seven clear stones as well and a little weight to it. The third and fourth pic are of a button i found at an older homesite and havent been able to find any information on it. I can make out on the back the words CHENEY and B HAM. The 5th and 6th pic are of another ring i found at a 40-50's school, it appears to be pewter, and it looks to me like an old "Spoon Ring" made from a spoon handle. And finally the 7th and 8th pic are of a flat button about 1 1/2 in diameter found at an old Hotel site that opperated from 1892-1916. Thanks in advance! Happy Dirt Fishing!

It would have HAD to been made from a spoon that has handle going in both directions.

Am I the only one who sees the belt/buckle motif?

Google spoon rings and look at the pics - not even close.
I dont know enough about spoon rings to say but I see what you are refering to. This ring may be soldered in two places.
