Description: | Modern gold finger ring, with openwork lozenge bezel set with a small stone. The circular band is plain and undecorated. The inside of the band has the hallmark750 in lozenge / (five pointed star)18 AR in rectangle / CD in ovalBoth the 750 and 18 relate to the purity, which in this case is 18 carat gold. As the 750 is not accompanied by a crown, it makes the hallmark continental rather than British. No exact match for the hallmark could be found; the star is used by several countries on the continent, including Norway and Spain. The AR and CD could represent the assay office, or makers / sponsors marks. AR could possibly be Aragon.
