US Army 18 Karat Gold ring

[Dutchdood]

Hello everyone I wondered if anyone could tell me what this ring is worth and if possible some history about it.
It has 1943 engraved in it and United States Army. There's a diamond in the center. Its 21 grams 18 karat gold.




Thnx in advance for your trouble.

Dutchhood,

Most rings we find are worth melt so based on the weight it's about $580 dollars or so.

So no historical value?

Well can try to sell privately over melt possibly a military collector would pay higher than that.

It's a sweet ring, but you do realize it was a world war, where millions of Americans served. I agree with Bill, maybe a little over melt value, mainly due to the diamond, from a collector.

I sold a 10k gold US Army ring for about $550 before. That ring is got to be Way over melt value.

I would put that thing online for like $1700 it might sit for a while but there's no way you can scrap a ring like that. Or put best offer but 18 K gold is so sought after and even collected and being from World War II also. I mean I'm not an expert in that stuff but I've sold mine in the past and scrapping that thing would be crazy.
