Posted by xuan nguyen van on
Super Bowl rings are iconic personalized awards and one of the most recognizable commemorations in sports. They are also high-quality pieces of jewelry, crafted with gold, diamonds, and other precious metals and stones. The team that wins the Super Bowl each year gets 150 rings paid for by the NFL (The NFL contributes from $5,000 to $7,000 per ring for up to 150 rings per team, with any additional costs being borne by the team) and can make more if they choose to. These go not only to players but also to team executives, coaches, practice squad members, and others associated with the winning franchise. The average cost of a set of 150 rings is $5 million, according to Yahoo Finance.
What is the value of Super Bowl championship rings?
Super Bowl rings typically cost $30,000 each. However, depending on how each club chooses to modify them, they can cost a lot more. The price will increase if the pattern is highly unusual, if it is made of a particular metal, or if there are a lot of diamonds in it. The final cost usually comes in at between $30k and $50k per ring.
The blingiest of bling, Super Bowl rings are typically made of yellow or rose gold and encrusted with diamonds. They usually include the team name, team logo, the phrase “World Champions”, and the Super Bowl number indicated in Roman numerals. Each ring can be customized with the player’s name and uniform number.
More than two thirds of the Super Bowl rings have been manufactured by memorabilia giant Jostens, although Balfour and Tiffany’s & Co. have competed and won the contract in past years. Presented in an elegant display case, these are not simple pieces of metal. The ring awarded to the Kansas City Chiefs after Super Bowl LIV, for example, has 3.3 carats worth of diamonds and 5.95 carts of rubies for a total gem carat weight of 10.85!
The cost of a Super Bowl ring is determined by the materials used and the intricacy of the design. Some rings feature detailed engravings, 3D images, and multiple diamonds. Most rings are made with gold, but the 2010 Green Bay Packers broke precedent by having their rings set in platinum. Rings have grown flashier and more intricate over the years, using more diamonds and driving up the cost.
Many of the rings use diamonds to represent numbers and statistics that are important to the team. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ rings from Super Bowl LV have 319 diamonds, for instance, to represent their winning score of 31-9 over the Kansas City Chiefs. The Denver Broncos’ 2016 design uses 15 diamonds for the 15 regular season games the team won. Most rings also feature larger diamonds in the shape of footballs to denote how many Super Bowls the franchise has won.
Rings that were issued to team members are usually worth significantly more than just the price of their materials because they hold value as sports memorabilia. Prices are affected by the team that won them and the player whose name is engraved. The most expensive Super Bowl ring sold at auction was Lawrence Taylor’s 1990 ring from his championship with the New York Giants, going for $230,401 in 2012. William “Refrigerator” Perry’s 1985 ring sold for $203,150 in 2015.
