I believe it may have been a ring. I make jewelry and the tearout in the back looks a lot like some of the broken rings i have repaired. Some makers use a very thin plade on the back and the roumnd part of the ring is soldered to the backplate. Due to the thinness of the plate and the small solder spot, many times the top would tear off when caught on things.
