I have a question about an interesting silver-colored ring I found over on the beach several years ago.
Used my White's DFX and the ring rang up with a VDI number in the mid-50's range. The ring is quite thick, and very dense/heavy, as would be platinum, but the ring's VDI number doesn't correspond with platinum.
There is a 'wave' projecting outward on the ring's surface for about 1/3 of the surface area, with the inscription 'Oneness' inside. I normally wouldn't be so puzzled about this particular ring except for the fact that it seems so much heavier than silver, and being thick as it is -- it makes me wonder. Opinions from different jewelers have varied, but the VDI number is my best piece of reliable data so far. Any input from you White's productline experts (and others too!) will be appreciated.
