Hello all i have this ring. i went to a jeweller to test it for gold, it did test for 18ct The inside of the ring below the half moon and star with Filigree did not test as gold, the jeweller mentioned the name pinchbeck that he explained is basically copper. So i have no idea what, where and how this ring was made and if anyone knows a date when this piece was made i would be grateful, Is this ring Georgian, Victorian or 20th century?
