    Hi folks

    a few things i found in oxfam yesterday, all £1.99 each
    wondering the age of the banded agate buckle
    the small ring has a 800 silver mark, and some others
    presuming just pastes ?
    the mood ring looks silver but probably not, are mood rings collectable ?

    any info or thoughts appreciated

    The first ring is Italian. What are the 2 letters on the right end of the rectangular punch on the left?

    Aquitaine Is What It IS! But NEVER BORED!

    Charlie (or @Bakersgma), marks on the right of the punch look to be an N with a tiny UN readable in between, then either an 8 or like an eternity loop! Showing in the lower two images, but since all so small, I think about the only thing that looks really clear TO ME is what I see as probably a DOLPHIN??....TOP IMAGE..... then to the punch on the left....what MIGHT be a star with maybe an 'I' close to it....'K' something then 'AA' , then a semi-visible larger NOT PUNCHED....like a larger shadow '5', then what I said above 'N' something 'loop' and of course '800' off to the right! OK, I'm TOASTED for a while....:happy::joyful:

    Thanks for the pics Aqui! I'm pretty sure those letters are VI for Vicenza. The 3 number in the center of that mark are the maker's registration number

    Thanks Bakers and aqui

    I can't make the numbers out even with a loupe, but letters are definitely V something

    I checked the mood colour chart and my colour means slightly tipsy ?

    Buckle half is Victorian and nice. Stones in the Italian one want checking. I'd think the mood ring isn't silver as it's adjustable.

    I had a mood ring back in the day. I don't know where the time went.

    Mood rings keep coming back every so often. Kids always think they're New or Cool even though people my age wore them as kids. The Victorian buckle piece is agate and who-knows. I'd run a velvet ribbon through it and wear it as a choker.
