Sunday my car broke down, i was stuck at my dads in Miami fl. so I metal detected the parking strip by his house and found this honking big biker ring by the road. It gave a screwcap/zinc signal, about 6" deep.

Here's a picture of it after just a rinse.

And here are pictures of it after a thorough cleaning. I left the patina on the Indian face, which is bronze I think. I lost just a smidgen of the patina above his left eye (right side of photo). There is pitting in the Alpaca silver (nickel silver) band, mostly below the cartouche in the photo.

These old Mexican biker rings seem to be very popular, and pretty expensive, on ebay.
