Thought it be some fun to see how heavy some 18ct rings can get,
[no stones etc] I have found 2 so far that have been 16.7g [freaky] that's pretty good, but, I bet the states can do way better than Oz.

Here is the last one I got, will find the other soon.

The heaviest 18ct I found was 11g signet ring. Found it in a park years ago with a C&G Wildcat.

Congrats to you on that find and best of hunting in the future

OBN, did you find it in a park behind a brothel? If so that would explain why the Senator said it wasn't his.

Cartier....18g. A good thing to note for Cartier, they only work on authentic items. Paid $80 to have it polished by them. Now have the receipt to authenticate. Retails for $3K.
