Gold Band - 18k Gold - Antique - 1871 (engraved)

Incredible 150 year old 18k gold band.  Buttery yellow gold.  Has a slight taper towards the back and a slightly more reddish hue that may have been from prior sizing with different alloys.  Size = 7.75.  Ring has a clear 18k stamp and a script engraving of 1871 for the year it was either created or gifted.  So special to own a piece if someone’s history.
