    Hello, firstly I really appreciate any help or insight. I’ve just been to a Spanish flea market and picked up a necklace/chain with 6 rings on the chain. Each ring is inscribed with something different and I’ve no idea what any of it means! Highly doubt they’re worth anything as I only paid €5 in total, but I am so intrigued ! could anyone shed some light on any of them? Thank you so much!

    The inscriptions look like manufacturer's codes of designs etc.
    I think you had a bargain. It is worth to have them tested for gold, you never know, some of them could be.;)

    I agree, those are sample shapes for wedding bands.

    Oh that’s so interesting. They are probably not gold in that case or do you think there might be a chance? Thank you so much for your reply

    The ones I’ve seen here were plated brass, but yours look better. I think it’s worth getting them checked, you may have got lucky.

    Ditto/thritto. Sample rings go both ways. Some are gold-plated costume and sometimes they're real gold. Possibly in a lower carat weight than the real ones, but gold.
