I can see a 25 and an m so I assumed .925 m for mexico?
I think its worth more than what the lady at the coin store says. Even if it is just silver.

I have only taken it to the coin store where I usually sell my silver dimes and halves and scrap gold... she offered me 5 bucks. I think I will take it to a jeweler tomorrow? Idk... maybe thinkin I should try an antique store too?
 

Possibly faceted amethyst stones? A while back amethyst was considered more valuable than it is today. Some giant deposit brought the value crashing down. Nevertheless, the detailed workmanship of the ring (check out all the little bumps that catch the light) combined with the craftsmanship of faceting 6 stones all the same, tell me that this ring was more than a commodity to the jeweler that made it. That's how I would market it - with big sharp pictures and text emphasizing the care that went into creating it. I'd start at $50 auction and hope to find 2 buyers that would compete for it.
 

I don't think its antique, its something you would get at a jewelry stand in the mall for maybe $25 -$30 :thumbsup:

Keep @ it and HH !! :hello2:
