The ring has an engraving of something that looks like VB or VS or something then a 750. It also has the girls name and a date of the wedding or engraving (I searched all the lost and found forums for it) anyways, it has white gold and yellow. Im stoked about it
, over 100 hrs of detecting and now I'm pumped.http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/859/pic1x.jpg http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/823/pic2fw.jpg |

It looks like it might be 18K gold. At this moment market price for gold is $38.49 per gram for 18k. Weigh it and you will have your answer. Note that a gold buyer will offer you less than full value, as they have to make a profit.
If you haven't yet tried to find the original owner you might want to. Since you have a name and date there is a small chance you could track her down. The ring might be worth more to her than melt value, but even without a cash reward many MDers think returning a precious item is its own priceless reward.

I would guess you would get about $200 scrap price. If you could weigh it you would know. As far as returning it? That's up to you in the end. I would scrap it, you've checked for a lost ad already. A plain band does not resell as jewelry well at all! Scrap it.

I found the exact ring, it has a weird set of markings then says 10k gold filled? That must be a real gold version of the same ring/wedding band? GL and HH.......Pat

What's the weight of that ring? I can find how much you could get out of that ring.

Should you try and find the owner of the ring? I guess that's up to you. Here is an interesting discussion we are having in the Beach and Water Hunting forum...
