Awesome first Merc! That ring is sweet. Does it have markings? What do the sides look like?
 
side details

Thanks, I was happy to fin the ring. It was existing to see it in the ground, side details below... its a Rare Vintage End Of The Trail Horse Ring Equestrian Native American Indian Horse Sterling Silver.
The End of the Trail by James Earle Fraser 1876 - 1953
This lone figure on his weary horse is one of the most recognized symbols of the American West. By many it is viewed as a reverent memorial to a great and valiant people. To some Native Americans, however, it is viewed as a reminder of defeat and subjugation a century ago. The monumental, 18' plaster sculpture was created for San Francisco's 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition and received the exposition's Gold Medal for sculpture. The subject of immediate popular acclaim, the image was widely reproduced in postcard, print, curio and miniature form.

That is a really cool ring to find. Those kind of look like Fred Harvey Era stamped designs on the side. Curious what is stamped on the inside?

Beautiful finds! You got treasure right in your yard! That place sure has seen a lot of activity in the days gone by! Congratulations!
 
Great finds. Glad you have the history behind the image, too. That imagry still haunts me, since the first time I saw it (when I was learning about the Trail of Tears in school).

Ring makes me sad, but it's a heck-of-a find.

Cheers,

Skippy
 
Nice find! I stumbled across this as i am searching for that ring. My dad gave me before he passed and i believe my niece stole it and my class ring. If you are going to sell it would you be so kind to contact me? Thank you
