Angel, heres some history on the ring in case you haven't looked it up yet.

History: Alfred E. Smith(1873-1944) was born on the East Side of New York. Before being elected to 4 terms as Governor of New York, Al Smith was, among other things, Sheriff of New York County during World War I. He is, of course, best-remembered as the Democratic nominee for President of the United States in 1928. He was the first Roman Catholic to be nominated for the office by a major party. He was defeated by Herbert Hoover in a bitter campaign marked by anti-Catholic bigotry. Alfred Smith died Oct. 9, 1944.

Thanks Steve! thumbsup01 I hadn't had a chance to dig for some info. The above helps. :clapping:
 
It was great hunting with you guys thumbsup01, enjoyed the company and the park, but yeah, I get a bit spooked when I dig bullets too. Thanks for having me.

I did manage to score bigger silvers than George :poke:, lol but seriously, that half dime is one sweet find. Congrats :perfect10:. Angel of course was raking in the old coins, even more impressive in person than on the forum. :clapping:

I also scored a silver thimble, which isn't stamped, so it could be rather old. Its nice that it isn't crushed, and it makes one of my better silver relic finds.
