What is the value of a woman employee's 1955 World Series Brooklyn Dodger ring?

Answer 1

The value of the 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers World Series Ring could be valued in the $10,000. -$15,000. price range more or less depending on a number of factors.

The key to the value of the ring will rely on who did the ring belong to, and having a letter of provenance showing the chain of custody from the person that was issued the ring, to the person who currently owns it. If you can show documentation that the ring was owned and issued to an employee of the 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers the Ring will have higher value. Proof of ownership as well as proof that the person was employed by the Brooklyn Dodgers, and was issued the ring.

Without any documentation of its authenticity as such the value of the ring will be determined by the value as a piece of jewelry, and not as a 1955 Brooklyn Dodgers World Series Ring belonging to any member of the organization. A ring that could be attributed to a player will sell for more than a ring that was issued to a team official or employee. The higher the ranking official or employee the higher the value. Salesman samples, and extra rings made up for gifts, or as replacements for lost or stolen rings would be at the lowest value.
