I took the class ring that I found a couple weeks ago by my local jewelers shop and had him buff it. It came out awesome and they enjoyed seeing it. Not many people around here actually graduated in the 20s. Being 14k makes it unique as well.

Very Nice!...That things looks a hellva lot better...Great find!
 
That is a sweet class ring! Looks like it had not seen light for a long while.
 
Very cool indeed.
 
That ring really cleaned up nice .. big congrats !!!
 
Sweet find! I didn't know gold tarnished like that
The gold didn't tarnish the other metals in it tarnished if it was a higher Karat it probably wouldn't have.
 
Very nice the buffing sure brought out how nice it looks.
 
Looking for the owners family?
 
Wow! That cleaned up real nice! Any luck finding the owner?

He might not be around being he finished school in 1925. If 18 when he graduated he would have been born in or around 1907. Very nice find!
 
It has very crisp edges - makes me think it wasn't worn for long before it was lost.
 
I have found two class rings, but none like this! That is truly a great find. Hard to find an owner that was born 125 or so years ago. I would love to have found this one.
