Nice Ring !
The "H.O." looks like the mfg. mark - try a Google search.

Good Luck !

Possibly, "Heavy Overlay" a somewhat deceptive way of saying its plated or it might be a makers initials.

New Here! Ring with 14 KHO stamped inside

Hi there! So glad I found this forum and hoping for a little help. I purchased a gold ring w/white and blue stones on it. Has 14 K ho (??) stamped inside. I tried searching online for what this may mean, but can't find anything. Any suggestions? Thanks so much! --katie

I’m thinking maker’s initials but not sure.
