    hello! i've tested this ring with an acid kit - it is not gold. seems like brass or copper, opinions on material?

    its inscribed on the band : to none - dee

    it is marked 7.8.47 within the square - is this circa 1947 or 1847? any help would be appreciated

    It looks to me like the DEE inscription is actually 3 initials D. E. E. You no doubt have a better view - does it look that way to you?

    If so, I wonder whether the To None is really To (initials.) I can't see that part of the inscription on my screen.

    When searching the term:
    Clasped hands Claddagh Fede ring, or articulated.

    What karat gold did you test for? This may well be 9K, which would fail test for something higher.

    Agree, you don't see these in the mid 19th century.
