Beautiful Robin Roberts 1950 Philadelphia Phillies "Whiz Kids" 25th Anniversary National League Championship 10K Gold salesman sample ring. Ring was issued as part of a 25th anniversary celebration in 1975 of the famed Whiz Kids from 1950 that snagged a dramatic National League pennant on the last day of the season thus capturing the hearts of generations of Phillies fans in the process. Hall of Famer Robin Roberts was the ace of the Phillies staff, as he would be for over a decade, with a 20-11 record and a 3.02 ERA. Dark red stone on the face, encircled by the words "Phillies Whiz Kids NL Champions" in raised letters. One shank has "ROBERTS" above a relief graphic of Shibe Park and the year, 1950. The other shank has "Pitcher," a relief depiction of Veterans Stadium and the year, 1975. Inside is stamped "Balfour 10K". Size 12 1/2. Great looking sample ring!
