Short hunt with the MX Sport lands me an OLD GOLD ring!
66484











































The dime is a 62D ROSIE

The ring is an Ostby & Barton Jewelry Co. founded in 1879 and this is one of the older marks

66483













They didn't use OB after the 20's

The founder Engelhart went down on the Titanic but his daughter was saved.

The MX Sport gets the Gold !!!!!

Happy Hunting !

Here is some of the information I found but I’m not sure what the C is in the mark.

I have found many O B rings in old swimming sites. But I have never found or even seen markings like that on a Barton ring. That information was interesting that you posted as well. I’m guessing that ring may be from the 80’s or 90’s at the latest.
