<p>[QUOTE="laura9797, post: 9918111, member: 9323"]Nothing like a last minute scramble as my daughter is adding more jewelry to the estate sale that begins at 10am this morning! She sent me pictures of a man's wedding band dated 1867 and also has a number - looks like 13 in a square along with the initials of client's mother's great grandfather. It did test at 14k and we originally thought perhaps the 13 was an 18 that had been worn down - it still could mean that and perhaps she didn't take a good scratch. We checked jewelry database and just did a random google search but didn't find anything. She did not have her ring sizer to check to see if the ring was a size 13 but that just doesn't seem to be how 19th century ring would be marked. Thank you for looking!</p><p> [ATTACH=full]498219[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]498220[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]498221[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]498222[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
