Sorry I am getting in so late. I don't remember saying this. I do remember giving a date for the silver one I have. If I am wrong, please show me.
Also I scratch my head at the silver bands like Indiana Jones. The filigree is the right form for Moro, but the style throws me off.
I will admit, though, the bottom band looks to be Jawi filigree script - maybe this is why it looks so weird. Also the top band is Moro.
Finally most gunongs seem to be from Mindanao, according to Federico and according to the style of okir I have observed.
