This was the ring that would launch an armada: Ring No. 1 of the Boston Celtic's incredible eight NBA Championships in a row and 10 in 12 seasons. It just so happened that Sam Jones' career precisely mirrored that dozen years of unprecedented success in professional sports, and here is offered Jones' very own ring from that 1958-59 season that started the dynasty. The Size 11 Koch 10K Gold ring boasts an imposing diamond at the center, encircled by the engraved "World Champions." On each shank are 1958 and 1959 atop a shamrock and the word "Celtics." The ring is in pristine and problem free condition and has "10K" and "Koch" engraved on the inner part of the band.
From Sam Jones personal collection and comes with a Letter of Authenticity from the Hall of Famer.
