I remember that Story - it belonged to Super Bowl starting center John Schmitt.
Here's a cool story about John and his ring(s). He was so proud of his Super Bowl ring and meant so much to him that he wore it every day. He lost it surfing in Hawaii and was devastated.
He had Balfour make a replacement and he wore that ring all the time for decades.
Now that his original ring was "discovered" he has two Super Bowl III Jets rings, and he has two sons. So now he gets to leave each son an Authentic Super Bowl ring and he cherished both of those rings!
