18K Gold Mexican 50 Pesos Coin Ring (Centenario)

This item is an 18K gold peso ring, featuring what appears to be a genuine 50 Pesos 'Centenario' Mexican gold coin prominently set as the face of the ring. The coin itself depicts Winged Victory, known in Mexico as the 'Angel de la Independencia.' Observable details on the coin include the date '1947' visible towards the upper right, and what appear to be '50 PESOS' and '37.5 ORQ. PUROS' (likely referring to the gold content of the coin) on the left side. The coin is circular, with a reeded or patterned edge where it meets the ring's bezel. The ring's band is wide and substantial, suggesting a robust construction, and features intricate, repeating patterns resembling a Greek key or labyrinth design around the bezel and possibly along the shoulders of the band, though the full extent is not clearly visible. The gold material has a warm, rich yellow hue consistent with 18K gold, and exhibits a moderate luster. There appears to be some natural patina and minor surface wear consistent with an item of its age and material, particularly on the raised elements of the coin and the edges of the ring band, but no overt damage or significant scratches are discernible from the image. The craftsmanship appears to be of good quality, with precise setting of the coin and clear detailing on the ring's engraved patterns. This style of ring, incorporating a gold coin, is often considered a statement piece and draws upon historical or nationalistic motifs, popular in the mid-20th century.
