story time, this ring is for shotguns, but is it silver?

Found this very weird looking with a plastic gem shoved into the top similar to the fist pic. Looked like plastic rococo Barbie on stop of a brutalist sculpture it was very wierd and so I pulled the cheap plastic off cuz I assumed no way someone would design the ring for that trashy glitter. Had to do some research cuz it looked like it had a function of some kind but it turns out it’s to pull the hot shells out of a shotgun which is wild and it’s fully antique. I assumed it was iron until tonight when I realized it had a makers mark that I didn’t see before. Does that say 925 cuz this thing is huge. I don’t know anything about anything tho and that’s why I have Reddit to be around the clever cookies. Thoughts? (Oh and definitely not trashing on Barbie or glitter or brutalism, I like them all, but not together in my opinion).

Do these rings look like they go together? They’re from a bag and I’m not an expert but the sizes match pretty darn close but none of the them have any markings and I don’t know their history.

What is this thing I found in a bag of cheap costume jewelry bought in the western United States?

It’s 6.75 centimeters long, heavy for its size, gold colored with tiny red tip on “crown,” also has a maker’s mark but it’s hard to read.

I don’t know what’s going on here. It’s either really cool or junk. Can’t tell if it’s marked. From a grab bag
