Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire My College Ring's Melt Value is Now $1,000.00

Mine is white gold, same price as yellow on your price list, it’s a size 13, a lot of metal. New pistol YeeHaw

I wouldn't sell mine, either. Besides, it apparently retains its value a heck of a lot better than a savings account.

You really selling yours for a new pistol?

Going to pass it on to your kids?

Honestly curious, what other intrinsic value would it have?

It's literally made of money. Real money, not Federal Reserve fiat currency.

What about a West Point ring?

NFL Super Bowl Ring?

Jewelry is feminine.

That men wear earrings does not make them masculine items.

Wedding rings and watches get a free pass, otherwise I agree.

I missed the part where he said it was a West Point ring.

Collector value of a superbowl ring I’d think would surpass the value of the raw material.

So is it a West Point Super Bowl ring your talking about?

Jewelry is jewelry. Like it or not. I don’t like it personally. Some do along with a quart of cologne. More power to them.

Oh dang, now you’ve done it. Introducing watches into the jewelry category

Still have all three
HS, BS, and MA, Wife bought the MA and yes I was in a Fraternity, even after 57 years still have many great friends from those days.
Met my wife of 54 years at a Frat party, With a College Degree learned I could make more money working with a brain instead of getting my hands dirty, which I did to pay for College.

That’s 3 threads right there, You condensed it into one,

Rookie move.

I don't wear jewelry anymore. My high school girlfriend lost my HS class ring in the river ….it's a long story but it was an accident. It was never replaced. After that I knew I would never have a college class ring. In college I wore gold jewelry like rings and chains because it was "In style". During my business career, I was given a couple of gold rings for my accomplishments with a company I worked for. Today I only wear my gold wedding ring. All of my old jewelry is kept in a bag to be melted down some day. Probably need to weigh all of it and who knows that day may come soon.

Huh, are cock rings considered masculine ?.... asking for a friend, but not a really good friend.

Where would you get the idea of melting a gold ring?
