This baby is heavy 15.1 gr Her father bought in Korea and was cut off by medical personnel before he passed. He never took it off. I’ve read that many non gem stone rings we’re high content gold. Can’t wait to get Xrf on it. Any ideas on inscriptions?

    They are proof marks or maker marks...you should be able to Google any information. Just like the silver proof marks, that also date the time peroid.

    The top mark looks like it could be a "ㅌ" but I can't make out the other one. The bottom line that looks like "44" and then the Chinese character for "gold"金

    The 44 maybe the AGW as sold by weight in Korea 60 years ago. As it sits at 15.1 gr it maybe 22k
