Picked up a few coins this arvo on the beach and at mid tide mark out popped this...

Thought it was a junker... But when I got home I got the loupe out and it's stamped 9 carat!
Weighs in at 6.0grams.
 
That's pretty cool, most of those rings are just junkers, but to find a real gold one would be damned rare, bet that made you smile! :)
 
Nice one mate! It's that strange we both found one? I don't think mine is worth as much as yours :)
 
Well done. always nice to find a ring,gold at that. I wonder what the inscription is ? seems Arabic, or is that a copy of the ''RING'' ?
:)

Unless the ring BigSam found shows an inscription on the inside of the ring when put into the fire deep within the mountain, I would say it may be a religious or wedding ring with Arabic (or other) writing, explaining the 9k mark. A quick internet search may solve the riddle.

If it is, sorry, you cannot rule the world. :(
 
It could be a blokes ring who has skinny fingers, I can only just get it on my pinky finger tho...
I called it a child's ring but then my wife tried it on and it's too big for her, I am thinking it's a wedding band at this stage, will try find out more details tonight about the engraving so I can give a better report when I drop it to the cop shop.
