Her story sounds fishy, I would have asked her specifics like color of stone as well but you already sent photos.

She told me the color of the stone before I sent the pics. The school is a small one I only later found out from her that there was another person with the same initials which seems to make more sense that that would be the owner!!!!! I cant got info on the other person though,,,,,, WTF did I get into
This is an addiction!!! There is no cure!!! And it only gets worse!!!!! KEEP PLUGGIN AWAY!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds a little fishy but what is it really worth other than sentimental value?

Since I have returned a lot of class rings I will give you my take on it. No matter who owns it I would at this point think it is just scrap gold. Missing that big of piece nobody would be interested in having it repaired.
If graduated in 1973 she would be 62 now. I would also think it is not hers. If I wanted to return it, and I called the school I would ask for the librarian. They have all the yearbooks and most are more interested in helping than anyone in the office.
Anyway, that is my free 2¢.
Please leave a ring after the beep. Thank You.

Thanks scuba I sent her pics she said she had tears in her eyes thinking about getting it back The odds of it being stolen in California by her baby sitter then ending up in Michigan 10 miles from the school that the rings was from ?She has since moved back from California and is in Michigan. I think all these rings looked the same or close. I wish I never got into this.

From the photos you have shown I can't tell what the emblem is on each side. Does this woman know what the emblems were and has she identified them?

Ask her what the "inscription" on the inside of it says. She'll either tell you there isn't an inscription or make one up.

Doesn't sound like it's hers and doubtful she goes out of her way like you did to return it. If YOU can't find the other person - I would melt it or keep it.
Good luck and congrats on the class ring.

I'm leaning toward the other person as well as she probably lost it there long ago while the one in California being stolen would not have made it back to the school area, but more than likely it was melted down soon after being stolen. I'd tell the one in California that she gave insufficient proof of it belonging to her. Also odd is that she did not volunteer the other student's name and wanted it mailed to herself while she searched for her. Right.
