I am guessing some kind of civil war commemorative ring. And that's Robert E Lee.

It appears to be some type of cutter but the photo is too large to really see it well

It is a tobacco cutter. My dad sold chewing tobacco and snuff for 35 years, and collected old tobacco related stuff.

Happy from the sound of things I take you knew Robert E Lee personally! Just how old are you? :TooFunny:
Like I said I photo-shopped out the words around the edge of the ring which said Pope & Young

Ranman that has to be worth some money! I was trying to look at the date on the cutter but all I could make out was Dec. 1 maybe 1816

A breeding aid for horses, used to see these on some of the horse farms where I worked.
