This 14K gold 1953-83 Ben Hogan Golf Anniversary ring commemorated the three decades since his historic 1953 campaign when he won his final three majors: The Masters, the U.S. Open and the British Open. The Size 11 1/2 ring has three 10-point real diamonds situated two at the top of the face and one at the bottom, with an unusual top design featuring an extraordinarily intricate center circle with his initials "BH" in script at the center, surrounded by the words "Pursuit of Excellence" and "Hogan" at the bottom. One shank has the name Ben Hogan at the top above a bust likeness and "1953"; the other has a figural of a golfer striking the ball above "1983." The only marking inside the band is the inscription of "C.H." The ring appears to be in essentially as-issued and problem-free condition and comes in the original black presentation box with gold highlights in a similar condition.
