If a team runs the same play over and over again and the defensive can't stop it, they deserve to fucking lose. What kind of fucking logic is that?

I've seen a couple of these come up in Pawn Stars, and he never buys them, because they are always from someone that didn't actually play on the team. I'm pretty sure Rico mentioned they don't use the same materials in those rings. Sorry

You can find them on ebay. Might be worth 2k-3k, but non-player rings are worth a lot less.

Ok so I looked it up
http://www.jostens.com/apps/prochamp/newenglandpatriots/fans/landing.mvc
its 10k white gold with 4.75 ct in diamonds.
I'd say its worth around $2000ish. Still $500-$1000 scrap value though. the gold is worth maybe $500 and same as the diamonds. Actually most of the diamonds are tiny. $500 wouod be very very generous. (Wedding rings are super over priced FYI)
Here's the text
The New England Patriots Super Bowl XLIX Championship Ring celebrates the team's DO YOUR JOB attitude with the largest Super Bowl ring ever made, crafted in 10-karat white gold with a minimum 4.75 carat weight and a total stone count of up to 192 diamonds. The ring showcases the team's four Lombardi Trophies; each trophy created by a marquise-cut diamond.
The ring top features the team's iconic Patriots logo, surrounded by 44 pavé-set round diamonds. The logo is custom color matched to the Patriots red and blue colors, with a diamond accent in the star. The words WORLD CHAMPIONS flank the ring top and 143 additional round diamonds are pavé-set to complete this uniquely shaped ring. The right side features the season's motto DO YOUR JOB , the final score of the historic game, the season record and the SUPER BOWL XLIX logo.
The left side lists all four championship years, a silhouette of Gillette Stadium and the player's name and number. Each player's number is set in diamonds and is handcrafted with anywhere from 8 to 26 additional diamonds.
The inside features an arbor with owner Robert Kraft's signature and the date he was moved to unite all NFL fans, regardless of their team, by reminding us that WE ARE ALL PATRIOTS .
As the Storyteller of Champions™, Jostens has crafted championship rings for more teams and more leagues than any other company in the world. Jostens is proud to have created all three of the NE Patriots previous Super Bowl Rings and is honored to partner again with the Patriots to craft their fourth Super Bowl Ring.

Read some more.
ring weighs an estimated 135 grams! (Wow that's 1/4 lb!)
checked my local refiner and 10k gold sells for $13.2 / gram today
so that's exactly $1782 scrap gold value!
Scrap value is around 2k with the stones, retail you might be able to get 5k from a colletor.

you're assuming its solid gold, most jewlery is plated, it most likely has about $50 worth of gold on it if your lucky.

Just it it appraised by 2-3 people. It is still a pretty iconic ring and I would actually be surprised if it was just "gold plated" rather than gold all the way through.
Check out collectors forums or some (REPUTABLE) pawn shops, they love shit like this. Once you get appraised, you can either keep it or sell it for whatever it is worth.
Personally I would just sell it for what is in it if you find out it is solid gold and all real diamonds, but if you are willing to find the market for people to buy this item then you will be able to fetch more. It may or may not take a shitload of effort, it is really up to you
I will congratulate you on getting this, even if it was just sort of given to you for working or whatever it is that got you it. It is kind of cool and is obviously worth SOMETHING

Pawn shops will offer 1.5k for it 1.8k if they are good.
my $1782 scrap quote is from the best paying refiner I know of, you'll be lucky to find a pawn shop that'll pay more than that.
Retail its hard to say, some fanatic fan migjt pay 10k or maybe nobody will offer a dime over 2 or 3k

And it's gonna sit around in your shop forever, you'll have to pay to frame it, gotta pay people to find a buyer..
Tell you what, let him give you 750 and that's the highest he can go. Cuz he's gotta make money too.

Your Googlefu is extremely weak. I'm not even into sports, let alone football and I found out who Kraft was in 10 seconds.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Kraft
I will admit, that at first I was completely fucking confused on why a food company would be handing out Superbowl rings, but before even responding in this thread I Googled the shit. Even after that I was still kinda confused because a guy like that would have a shit ton of employees to give out those rings to. But when Bassfreak said it was around 150 people, it's not so hard to believe. Still a huge chunk of change to drop, but to someone worth that much, it wouldn't be a huge deal.
