This is especially important as its hard to quantify.
A really good friend of ours recently passed away and she had her favourite ring taken apart and made into two rings for her great-grandchildren.
I've seen all kinds of crazy stuff, I imagine troutman has as well, a Father wears his wedding ring for 60 years and passes away, that ring is worth more than just its metal-weight.
A mother wears her rings for the sum-total of the entire time you've been alive, what are those rings worth?
Its hard to say and it depends on the person.
