nice ring and good hunt,,the thing you think is a shoe buckel is realy a watch fob,is there any writing on the back? that would be very helpful in finding out who put it out and putting a date on it.

hey Lee the pictures are great :cheering: the gold item up on the top looks like a wax seal matrix for stamping wax to seal letters , what kind of stone is on that and is it carved in any way:huh: its a very cool find :clapping: :clapping: i would very much like to see the back of the town cryer item and is it silver plated or solid silver??

i agree with JT it definately looks the right size for a watch fob , narrowing down the age will be challenging though. i hope you bring it to the next meeting as a few gents will be interested in it and the wax seal.
