What can I do with a used men's 18k platinum wedding band?

Hang on to it. You never know what will happen in your life. My DH's dad had a similar thing happen.

He divorced, didn't want his wedding band, but knew one of his kids might someday want it. When DH met me, we were both in college and he didn't have a lot of money to spend on a Wedding Rings|ring. So he designed one, and then using the lost-wax casting method, cast my engagement ring from his dad's old wedding ring, using the smelting furnace at the university's art school.My mom gave us her original Diamonds|diamond (my dad had upgraded it for her).

For our wedding ring, his grandpa gave him another family heirloom ring that he used as the gold for an interlocking band for me, and a matching one for himself. You may be able to find an artist who can do a similar thing for you, to celebrate whatever it is you want to celebrate.

Either sell it to a jeweler, solder a post to it for a Earrings|earring (if it's small) or have a jeweler melt it down and form a new ring to your liking.

Ound a good place to help with your wedding planning, You can div your wedding rings online, accubest.com provid all kinds off tungsten rings, titanium rings.

If it's engraved then I doubt it can have any value other than as raw platinum to melt down and re-use. You could try offering it to a local jeweller, and Google|Googling "unwanted platinum ring" turns up a bunch of sites that will buy used jewelry. Examples like this:getgoldcash.com/index.htmlMake sure you're not getting scammed.

However, you will only get a rough 25% of the value if you take it to a pawn shop. You could keep it for a friend or new person in your family that might one day want it. Or make a Necklaces|necklace band out of it.

Or you can grind of the engraved portion of the ring have in re-polished and then sell it? All my idea's.

Hold on to it; the price of gold (and hence most precious metals) has been going up for a while and there is no end in sight. After it rises for a while, there are places like we-buy-gold that would buy them at decent price; do shop around though!

A few options:1. You can hold onto it, hand it down to future generations.2. You can melt it down, and get some green for it at a place like below that buys gold jewelry.

You can find these sites by searching for themhttp://www. Cash4gold. Comhttp://greenforgold.

You can also take it to a local pawn shop and see what they say. I wouldn't go to an online auction if you don't have to, just because it's hard to sell jewelry online, especially when it's engraved.4. Take it to a local jeweler ask them what it takes to get rid of the "luv always" part, and either save it, or use one of the above 3 options.

Okay so here it is... Depending on the depth of the engraving. Most the time a jewler can normally fill in an engraving. So you have a couple options.

You could Pawn it and get an okay price. Or you could get a quote on getting the engraving filled and see about selling it to a used jewler or on eBay|ebay... Check it out, you could make some money on it.

Hang on to it. If you should ever lose your father, you may regret giving up this memento. Whatever cash value it may have now will never compare to the future emotional value.

Put it away for now. In the future, you may want to wear it on a chain.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
