Cephalopods

Cephalopods, such as squid, octopods, nautiloids, ammonoids (see below), and belemnites, are mollusks with tentacles and beak-shaped mouths for catching prey. Some cephalopods such as belemnites and living cuttlefish have internal shells, while others have straight or coiled shells, such as those of ammonoids or nautiloids. Still other cephalopods, such as the octopus, have no shell. The mass extinction at the end of the Cretaceous (famous for eliminating the non-avian dinosaurs) also eliminated belemnites and ammonoids, which had been extremely diverse during the Mesozoic.

Beauty silver ring with diamonds - looks initially like medieval style but has a number inside the band. I had to use a high power microscope to read them

T & CO - 8431925

Appears to be a vintage Tiffany silver ring but the number does not produce anything on google.

Serial or Design Numbers: Tiffany pieces rarely use 7-digit numeric codes like 8431925 as a product SKU or design style reference.

Serial Numbers / Numbers: Longer numeric strings or internal stock numbers on older or specific pieces can sometimes be inventory, workshop, or sizing marks rather than a public catalog item number.

I will need to check the number again under my scope
