Hi,

Welcome to the Forum.

Your are far more likely to get a response if you embed your images as very few people will click on such links.

Hi,
Nothing except marks for fineness (.750 and 18K).
Possibly Middle East because numerals look as if written by an Arabic speaker.Or a country outside Europe.Rather common when either letters or numerals are visually reproduced.
The image of the ring would be helpful (possibly).
Regards

Hello!
This remind me the hundreds of copper rings, what I saw in my carrier with fake "marks".
Did you do an acid test in your ring?
Best regards!

Good point. I have not done any acid test. I was going to buy the kit but instead I will drive to a place where they have a handheld xrf machine.

Will let you know the results tomorrow.
