Sometimes jewelry manufacturers will stamp the inside of rings with numbers indicating the weight of a main diamond, especially a solitaire, for identification purposes. I have seen it done. Probably not a common practice though. If you have specific numbers stamped inside of a ring, list them here for possible interpretation.

If there is an 8 digit number followed by another set of numbers, you are probably looking at the GIA number, which is usually followed by a 2nd set of numbers which is the carat size of the diamond associated with that number. For example 12345678 1.25 would mean you have a GIA certified diamond (Gemological Institute of America) weighing 1.25 carats. At least that is how my diamond is marked on the inside of my ring.

NB: Since it is so easy to separate a diamond stone from the metal in which it is mounted, you can only trust the GIA certificate for a diamond stone as the true indicator of its value. Trusting the markings on the jewelry's metal to indicate the size/ quality of its diamond is naive.

What is the meaning of the number '17' stamped on the inside of a ring band?

The number '17' stamped on the inside of a ring band typically refers to the ring size. In the jewelry industry, ring sizes are measured in millimeters or inches, and each size corresponds to a specific number. The number '17' likely indicates that the ring is a size 17, which can vary depending on the country or region's sizing standards. It is important to note that ring sizes can differ between countries, so it is always best to confirm the specific sizing system being used.

What does the number 5 mean when it is stamped inside of a ring when there is OAN but not sterling or 925?

The number 5 stamped inside a ring typically indicates the size of the ring, with "5" representing a specific measurement in ring sizing. When "OAN" is present, it often refers to the manufacturer or brand, while the absence of "sterling" or "925" suggests that the metal may not be sterling silver. It could be made from a different metal or alloy, so it's advisable to have the ring tested to determine its actual composition.


What does the number 9 stamped inside your ring?

It means that the ring is made from 9k gold 9 does not mean a ring is 9k unless there 1s a "k" involved I have never seen a ring that was designated 9k/ Usually you will see 10,12.14,18 or 24k unless the ring was custom crafted at 9k. It is more than likely 9 is the ring size. Hope this is helpful!
