Unexpected cool find today!

[Lenrac2]

We hit up a local park and got some clad and a fairly rare headstamp. We (he) found a black ring thing that looked like a fitting. Not impressive. He cleaned it up when we got home and it is a 1919 WWI silver French franc trench art ring!! That was such a cool surprise! Included pics from the web. Thanks!

I make coin rings out of quarters and halves I have thought about burying some in parks so others can enjoy finding one.

That would sure make someone's day!

Love the ring! I found one quite similar earlier this year...also made from a silver French coin. A very interesting piece. Congrats!
