Hi Andre,
The large ring is a Edwardian /Victorian Curtain ring. It's always nice to find Gold but what makes you think your piece dates back to 1700s? I would date it no earlier than 1910.

By the hallmarks,it came as 9 carats,1798.
I’m just going by what I saw on the internet.
I’m happy anyway,me first bit of gold,yes!

The 375 mark on it would indicate it is comparatively modern, but it is nice to find gold :)
