Scarf rings
Three scarf rings said to have belonged to Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson (1758-1805). Three spherical nuts, hollowed out and cut with slots inset with silver or white metal in the form of a star above a heart, the arms of the USA, and an anchor. The work is quite crude - possibly sailor's work - and is therefore unlikely to be associated with Nelson.
