Old Silver Ring
« on: December 19, 2014, 10:56:39 am »
Hy everyone!
I'm new on this site and I would be greatful if someone could tell me more about the ring if it's possible.
I also did some research but I didn't found anything about it.
The ring is old in my oppinion.Also in the inside of it it's written "Franc Ios IDG Avstriae Imperator".
I would like to know more about it and what value do it have.
Thanks a lot and sorry for my bad english!!!

It seems that your ring was made out of a silver coin of emperor Franz Joseph of Austria.

Hi and welcome!

I agree that it "seems" to be a coin...but can't see well enough to see if in fact it was a coin originally or made in the likeness of a coin.

My opinion for what its worth, is its made of low grade coin silver 800 possibly less and its only value as a broken ring made from a very worn coin, at least the coin is now very worn. It has only scrap value on its weight which I am guess is next to nothing. Current gold and silver prices per weight are easily found on the net.
