Good luck finding the owner. If nothing else you might try looking through a '53 or '54 UGA yearbook.

I graduated from there 24 years too late to help you.

I've been chasing the owner of a class ring since before Christmas and have had no luck. My guy seems to have disappeared! Hope you have better luck than I have had so far. Monty

I GOT WITH A COUPLE NICE LADIES WITH UNIV GEORGIA---LORI AND JAN--- THEY WERE THE ONE TO RESEARCH AND FIND INFO---IF A.H.T.--WAS RIGHT FOR INITIALS--NOT SURE ABOUT "T" HE GOT RING FOR 1953 BUT DIDN'T GRADUATE UNTIL 1954--DOES ANYONE KNOW ABOUT THE BIG INITIALS ON SIDE OF RING "A-B"--

Could the A & B stand for Atlanta Bulldogs? I see there is a bulldog on the ring as well. Just a guess. Good luck.

I think the A B on the side is the particular school within the university

IT might stand for a fraternity name like ALFA-BETA

The traditional University of Georgia ring featured the University logotype surrounding the stylized Arch with the founding date 1785 at the base. The left shank of the ring featured the recipient's degree letters, the Hunter Holmes Academic Building, the School Seal and the State Flower. The right shank displayed the recipient's Graduation Year, the University Chapel and Bulldog standing in Sanford Stadium.
