I've found rings with Plat in them, I always took them for PLATE With the E worn off or just missing.

Although Zales is known for good Jewelry,
I'm sure they sell Plate as Come-ons too

Not confusing.....Most likely a ring some hustler pawned off on some unsuspecting sucker who thought he was being given a good deal.....Heard of it happening before. And I'd say good chance that's what your looking at. :metaldetector:

That's the truth. I'm sure there are plenty of fakes out there and people know the name so they are less likely to question.

yes, a fake for sure.... just a couple of days ago a ring came through our shop that was clearly marked 14K but was actually gold plated silver
