It's been a slow year for me as far as picking up championship rings, but perhaps my luck is changing.
I just picked up this beautiful Super Bowl XIII - 1978 Steeler ring.
The Steelers did something unusual that year. On non player rings, they put a "78" on the Steeler helmet to designate the year. Player rings, had their actual jersey number on their championship ring's helmet. Players also had their position at the bottom of the ring (ie. QB, WR, DT). Non player rings had the recipient's initials. Of course, everyone had their last name prominently displayed on the ring too.
