So I found a ring...
Discussion
Well I am not a vendor, but I would venture to guess that its value will be based on weight/gold carat/any precious stones it contains.
It depends on what you mean by "value." Do you mean how much would you expect to pay for it new in a store? Do you mean how much could you get for it if you sold it? Are you simply looking to appraise it?
Take it to any high street jeweller (or two).
Edited to say, good shout about handing it in, might mean alot to someone.

Due to my own grammatical inadequacies, for which I take full responsibility... the point seems to have been lost beneath a sea of presumed greed.
No one has claimed the Ring. It was found in an Office, internally, on site, private property, limited access... well over a Month ago.
We would like to donate it to charity. So looking for a vague valuation.

fooking thief, hand it in to the police as said above then if no one claims it its yours....ohas mentioned, just take it to a jewelers/pawn shop (not anne summers
)what you should always do with wallets (and I mean ALWAYS) is remove any trace that it belongs to someone apart from you and keep the f
king thing.
I was about 8 years old on holiday in the highlands with my dad and we had pulled in for some petrol. As we were pulling away the car infront of us drove off, the driver had left is wallet, ram packed with money on top of his car and it fell off. My dad trying to show me the correct way, told me to get the wallet and we chased the other car for miles through the hills (from Kyle of Lochalsh to almost Invergarry) flashing and trying to get him to pull over. He stopped at the Invergarry hotel, luckily as we were going in opposite direction to him, and I got out and gave him his wallet back - what was the response? Nothing, absolutely fk all, not even a thank you, just a "oh ok" and then off he went. If some little kid came up to me and gave me my wallet back, fully laiden with money I'd have at least said thank you, but would give hima good reward for his efforts.
Moral of the story, fk 'em, keep the wallet, they lost it, their fault.
I know you dont really have a wallet, but what you said just sparked a little fire I have built up inside.

it depends. there may be a time when you wake up from a very heavy night out with two wallets. yours, and one owned by someone you have never heard of in your life. king thing.puzzled, you'll ask your flatmates where it came from, to be told you found it on the bar and spent the contents on booze.
you'll then have to refurnish said wallet with cash and call the owner. when giving him said wallet you'll tell him you found it on the street and that the cash is still inside. he'll find this really odd as he knew he lost it in the bar and why would someone steal it without taking the money and why does it have more cash in that it did the night before.
you'll then have to leave sharpish before he can tell how red you've gone and puts 2 and 2 together.
Send it off to one of those companies that are advertising everywhere at the moment to buy any old broken gold, use their "freepay insurance covered envelope" get your cheque, but here's the clever bit, then send the cheque back within the 14 days and say no thanks, once you've done all that simply multiply the value of the cheque by 50 and bingo one free valuation
