I have an old silver ring that belonged to my dad and it had "925" inscribed inside as well as "11". I found online that the "925" refers to the high quality of sterling silver (92.5% silver, the rest most likely copper) but found nothing on the "11". Today I went to a jeweler for a watch battery and took the ring with me to have it cleaned and when I asked the jeweler what the 11 meant, I was told it was mostly likely either a personal inscription of the original maker (unknown meaning) or just the SIZE, and she measure it and said it was a size 11, so that was probably it.
