This is the rating and price for Gold Ring

Description : Egypt, Late Dynastic to Ptolemaic Period, ca. 664 to 30 BCE. This is a beautiful high-quality swivel intaglio gold ring featuring an ibis and a bird on the green bloodstone. The ring band is comprised of a 93% (equivalent to 22K+) gold sheet rolled into a tubular shape, and the terminal tips receive the pin finding for the intaglio. The stone is ovoid, incised with a standing bird in profile, perhaps representing a falcon or other sacred avian creature. This stone is set in a gold bezel that swivels, and when turned over, the gold face is engraved with an elegant, ibis - a long-legged wading bird that was associated with the god Thoth. The bezel and stone are pierced longitudinally and revolves on a gold pin. The swivel enabled this exquisite ring to serve as both symbolic amulet and a signet that could show off either face as the wearer chose.
