I went to a nearby lot where a house used to stand that I've hunted quite a bit, but wanted to try my Nox with the sniper coil, set on Beach 1. I got a good signal 17-19 that I thought had a chance of being an IHP, I've gotten a couple there. I was happy to pull this out of the dirt. Just costume, but to me it looks 1920s or earlier? Nothing on this site is modern, which is nice.

The clasp on it makes me wonder how old it is , nice find though
 
Found this online: "Traditional Spring Ring Clasp - The most common type of clasp, which has a little spring inside the round shape of the clasp which allows it to open and close. The spring ring clasp was invented in the early 20th century. Jewelry older than 1900 will not have a spring ring clasp."
 
Very cool, reminded of the one I found earlier this year. I found this one at a site that dates to 1910 or so --and is of similar style, IHP is for scale.
Excellent dig, sir!
