The markings inside a ring almost always comprise of the initials of the jewelry maker and the actual gold content of the ring. In the example nk14k, the nk stands for the maker or manufacturer of the ring. While the 14k stands for the purity level of the ring. 14k gold rings are 58.5% pure gold and the remaining 41.5% are other non-precious metal alloys.
