Popular Post JCR Posted July 17, 2024 Popular Post Share Posted July 17, 2024 Nicer jewelry is not a common find for me, so last Sunday's hunt had some pleasant results. Both are considered Costume pieces, but after a cleaning, some research and a visit with my Jeweler, they are both at least quality costume jewelry. Both have the Makers Mark for Uncas. A capital U with an angled fletched arrow through it. They were founded in 1911 & are still in business. One has the arrow R to L, the other L to R. Both date to the mid-late 1920s or early 1930s. The small ring is marked Sterling with a glass stone. The larger ring is not marked but the stone is in perfect condition so I knew it was real. The Jeweler confirmed it to be a Citrine, so semi precious. The ring itself is gold filled and in nice condition other than having lost it's luster. It has a very nice filigree design. My wife liked both so the Citrine will be worn some and the Sterling ring will be re fitted with a new stone in White Topaz. Also dug a very nice 1940D Jefferson. 14 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26237-nice-costume/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valens Legacy Posted July 18, 2024 Share Posted July 18, 2024 Very nice hunt and a couple of great pieces. Those old rings can actually bring more money than the new stuff out there. Good luck on your next outing. 2 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26237-nice-costume/#findComment-277403 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TampaBayBrad Posted July 19, 2024 Share Posted July 19, 2024 Very nice, and old pieces. I keep my better junk rings separated from my junk junk rings. 😄 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26237-nice-costume/#findComment-277491 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DWerk Posted July 19, 2024 Share Posted July 19, 2024 Finding something beautiful and old is often times better than finding gold... 2 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/26237-nice-costume/#findComment-277503 Share on other sites More sharing options...
