  • the numbers are usualy how many carrots it is and the letters usualy mean what styl or wear i came from
    take it to a gold dealer any ware that sells gold and they can price it for you buy reading the numbers letters and we?ging it
    but always take it to at least 2 places

  • They are the assay marks made by the jeweller which indicate the quality of the gold (eg. 9, 18 or 22 karat) and the origin. Where to sell? I have successfully sold jewellry on Ebay and most jewellers will give you an insurance value so you can set a reserve price.

  • It represents the karat of the ring

  • it represent the karat and the regions stamp i think

  • Normally the ct of the ring and other numbers may indicate the jewellers it was sold from..A friend of mine tried to sell her engagement ring and wedding ring recently they offered her pennies.
