What to do with this Gold and Emerald Monstrosity of a Ring?

[FC-Treasure]

I've had this chunky ring for quite a while, sitting in a drawer. It weights in a 17 grams, the emerald and diamond are real and it is 14K gold. It probably dates from the 1960's. I think the box says "Corrigans Jewelers Since 1914". Probably a Dallas Texas based jeweler.

What do you all think? Does it have value other than scrap?

Thanks,
James

Get an auction to sell it, some unique/unusual jewelry can bring high bucks, may be worth valuation to see.

Interesting, Corrigan's was/is the upscale version of Zales. They were acquired by Zales in the 1940's but retained their name until 1999, when they were re-named to "Bailey, Banks, and Biddle Fine Jewelers".

First... do some homework on that stone...
For that will be where... If any surmountable value could be.

Start here and learn about the potential in the stone via study of it and comparisons as to educate yourself prior to showing it to multiple jewelers.

Well, you must consult professional jewelers for accurate information on this. However, if you want emerald or any other jewelry than you should get in touch with any of the online companies. They can help you buy your favorite jewelry.

It's worth whatever someone will pay for it, like anything else.

I quite like it. Probably too high for my budget. I'd suggest an appraisal
