What you are seeing is the letters/numbers SS 92.5, this means the ring is Sterling Silver 92.5 percent pure silver.
Fine silver (99.9% pure) is generally too soft for producing functional objects; therefore, the silver is usually alloyed with copper to give it strength while preserving the ductility and beauty of the precious metal. Other metals can replace the copper, usually with the intent to improve various properties of the basic sterling alloy such as reducing casting porosity, eliminating fire scale, and increasing resistance to tarnish.

What does 925 gm stand for on a bracelet?
It is unlikely that a bracelet would weigh 925 gm (grams), about two pounds. A close look at the bracelet should reveal that the 925 is preceeded by a decimal point---".925"---that is stamped on the piece of jewelry (ring, earring, bracelet, etc.) to denote that it is comprised of 92.5% silver. The remaining 7.5% is a hardening agent, often tin or copper. The fact that the bracelet in question appears to have "gm" following the number could be coincidental in that it could be the initials of the manufacturer or jeweler.

What does a dollar symbol mean with the 925 copy right stamp mean on silver ring?
I'm not sure about the dollar symbol, but the 925 is actually ".925". That is the commonly used abbreviation for sterling silver, which is made up of 92.5% silver and 7.5% copper. The dollar symbol might be the manufacturer's logo, or possibly it might not be a dollar sign. It could just be an unclear stamp of something else. Try to look at it under a microscope to get a clearer look. --Kathy Feathered Gems Jewelry www.fgemz.com
