[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 230483, member: 1695"] Yes, it was a bit strange that it reacted in such a way only after being in the CAB solution for only a short period of time. Although it might be a bit disappointing on the outcome of the ring, it's still a good learning process for identifying finds, and the best methods to use for cleaning various metals. I too have had my fair share of pulling rings from the beach or parks, only to be disappointed to find they are junkers when I got home. Even this haggard looking skinny silver ring will read in the low 80's (out of 0-99) on my detector, and most 705 ID charts I have looked at will place silver rings in the high 30's through to 40's, depending on size. If in the ground, you can probably drop a digit or two off those numbers to take into account ground conditions.
