Default Heart stopper in my scoop!

Found about 37cents worth of clad this morning, then this ring.It was a beautiful sight in my sifter, after expecting to see the usual debris.It has 5 heart shaped diamonds(or what looks like diamonds), and inside the band it says "925". Even if it's not worth anything, I really enjoyed finding it.
HH, Dave

Nice find, it's worth something whether the stones are real or not, it's silver, could of been a plated or a toy ring .

I know that the Europeans don't use Karrats, instead they use numbers such as 417 would be 41.7 % gold wich is 10 K, Can't remember off the top of my head what 14 & 18K are, Anyway maybe that means your ring is 92.5% White gold or whatever metal it is made of. That would be really cool. That is really a nice find and my heart would be stoppin to. Hope it turns out to be the real deal for ya.
