Returned ring.........and question about selling scrap gold.

[Greg (E.Tn)]

My partner and I were underwater detecting a old swimming hole--he was finding and I was digging. Out pops a 1948 college class ring w/ the owners name in it.

We did a little detective work and the ring will be returned to--not the owner--but the owner's wife tomorrow.

Turns out the ring was passed down to the son, who gave it as a "promise ring" to a sweetie, who promptly lost it--about 4 years ago.

So there's a happy ending to that story.

On another note, we have a accumulated several 14kt gold wedding bands that are pretty impossible to trace back to the original owner, and are looking to sell them for scrap.

What is a good price for 14kt gold, per gram?

If you have a scale to weigh the rings on, this site will give you the exact values per oz, gram, etc

After visiting the dendrics site and calculating what you have, go to ARA
and read what they say. They do what they say. My last check from them paid for the two most expensive detectors I have.

Just plug in karat weight and gram weight and it calculates it for you! Good luck!
