Here is the video Jan sent me of the find.. Some good views of the rings,pedestals,front plates... It's long but you can skip around to the rings find:

Most big casting is done with centrifugal molds, vacuum or pressure assist etc. But the home or small shop craftsmen will still use the pedestal set up to do his work... Looks almost exactly as the old dug find..

In my opinion they are postwar. Maybe some sort of remembrance type ring etc. The method is complicated and not used until after the war.. Not something done in the field, or back of a truck. The 44 date also condemns them. Nothing about them makes sense. That late who would they be for?
No one alive knows the when or why they got buried,,,a good mystery..
