Default Ring # 17 and my first dollar

Again the wind was blowing to hard to hit the main Beach so I went to my inland beach. I have hit it pretty hard but found a gold colored ring. I cant find any marking but I'll take it as # 17. I also found my first dollar in the water and this gold colored coin or I should say token, not sure what it is maybe someone that still has small kids will know

Hi Bill,
I Found The Same Exact Ring Design Last Week.it's A Oldie.1920's-30's The Jeweler Said Based On The Sterling Mark In A Circular Pattern & The Indian Chief In A Head Dress Makers Mark.at Least You Know How Old It May Be But Sorry,it Turned Out To Be Brass.
But Congrats On Ring # 17!

It sure cleaned up nicely! Check it out again for a hallmark. You might need a loupe to see it.

Nice hunt!
