Found this over a year ago,custom made no K mark,tested 18K.What is it worth,other than melt,which,I would never do! Thanks GodBless Chris
The jeweler said I'll give you 75 for it,and,I said,no you won't,I left.Its worth is in melt, unless like Henry said you find someone who likes it more than melt value.... If it is 18k then I would guess it will not go for much more than melt...... Buy hey, I will give you $40 for it....
Found it in an old tobacco field,the house was torn down in the early 50's.To most people it would only be worth melt, other then that who knows, the only way to find out is to put it on ebay and see what the market prices it at. Judging by the style it reminds me of rings sold at places like Piercing Pogada in the 1990's.
I tell you this is a gypsy ring
OMJ,I know the gypsy culture personally. This exact Egyptian themed jewelry is a favorite of theirs
Gold and Genuine Stones were/are status symbol. The style & era of this jewelry does coincide with the house, however it's primitive appearance could indicate its older.
I think the real value in this ring is how you found it & the mystery of its past
I found this link for you:

If you can contact the maker of this ring, perhaps they can tell you the design and where it originates, time, era etc.
