Beauty! Congratulations! Stamped 925 I'm guessing? Where did you find that one?

I found it in a park near horse stables, I haven't even read the stamp yet, will have to get back to you on that. It does look like a thick ring. Have no idea what the markings mean

see .925 which is the standard for Sterling silver, meaning the silver content in the piece is 92.5% (i.e., the remaining 7.5% is comprised of other elements). .929 then could mean that the silver content in a piece is 92.9%
Interesting education we have learn today, so is the melt down the same as the cost of the ring

54 cents a gram for melt. It's worth more as a ring to the right buyer, easy $20. only a few bucks as silver

The stamp probably reads .925. They don't always make perfect marks. I did silversmithing for over thirty years and it looks like a standard silver ring. I always love finding them and I have even repaired some broken ones that I have found. In thirty years i have even found a few that I had made but I have no idea who bought them because I probably made hundreds each year.
