I cleaned it up some more. It is gold colored that's for sure. I think it is brass but then my wife thinks gold, but then a woman would right LOL.

It is the same design that's for sure, that in itself is something. After 59 years of using my eyes even with a x30 glass I am having trouble seeing. I know there is no Indian but I thought I might have seen a little writing but the ring is worn inside quite a bit.

I know one thing it's not a junk ring as I thought it was when I first saw it in my scoop. heres some pictures after another quick clean up.
