Mine got melted down to ofset the cost of a second engagement ring for the wife. She kept destroying the original platinum engagement ring that I gave her. It was always back at the jewelers getting reset to round, scratches polished out, etc. It just made sense to get a new durable white gold one for daily wear / abuse and keep the platinum one for special occasions and nights out.
Now who says I am not a nice guy? Not to mention there isn't much of a market for a gold UConn BS in chemistry ring these days. Took me forever to find the darned ring since I hadn't worn it in about 10 years prior to trading it in.
