475 could be the amount by weight (in thousandths) of gold in the ring. This would be about 13 carat gold.
There are several ways to tell if a ring is white gold or platinum. The first and easiest way to tell what a ring is, look for the hallmark inside the ring. If you notice a 10k or .475 stamp, it means that it is 10k gold (or 47.5% gold). If there is a 14k or .585 stamp inside, it means its 14k gold (or 58.5% gold). If you see a 18k or .750 stamp, its 18k gold (or 75% gold). If you see a stamp that says PLAT, or is stamped .950 or .900, then it is a platinum ring. There are other ways to tell if it is platinum or white gold as well. Platinum is usually 60% heavier than 14k gold. So take a ring that you KNOW is gold and compare it with the weight of the ring in question. If the ring in question is much heavier than the gold ring, then it is most likely platinum. Additionally, if the ring in question has a yellow or tarnished look to it, then it is most likely gold. If you're still unsure, just take it to your local jeweler and ask them to test it for you. They should have several techniques they can use to determine what metal it is. If you don't feel like going out of the house and still need some clarification, there is a great tutorial of precious metals that you can access at the link below this posting. I hope this helps, and good luck!
