Hey diggers! On Friday after work spent couple hours at one of my sites. Managed to find the ring that I put in the plastic bag and cleaned it at home. It turned out to be a Mexican biker ring.https://www.etsy.com/listing/118538385/sale-vintage-antique-mexican-mexico There is Mexico marking inside. The side plates were missing though and I went out yesterday to find them in the hole where I found the ring - That was my mistake - I forgot to recheck the hole.:BangHead: That was really great to find them both! :headbang::headbang: Voila!!! Now can enjoy the pictures of the ring! Thanks for looking and your comments in advance.

cool ring! I had to look it up. Seems after a revolution or devaluation Mexican's were stuck with coins not worth their denominations. So they made rings out of them to get a better return.

It seems like that cause many sources in the Internet give this information - melted pesos jewelry.
 

I always heard they were made to do the job brass knuckles would do after they were outlawed.

Is it true? ?
People make rings out of SILVER so they can be used as BRASS nuckles?? Why not,, just use brass??
Congrats on your finds.
 

Congrats on your find. That looks like one huge ring.
Thanks man. This ring is huge and massive. But freakin nice - the pictures can not show the whole beauty of it. My best find for the season so far!
