Proving that 2007 was no fluke, Eli Manning and company again managed to dismantle the Patriots juggernaut again with a fourth-quarter comeback and again with Manning taking MVP honors. It was the fourth Big Blue championship in franchise history.
Offered is running back Danny "DJ" Ware's 14K-gold, size 14 Super Bowl ring, which weighs a substantial 92 grams and features a total carat weight of 1.36 in diamonds and 1.11 in sapphires. There are 4 marquis-cut, football-shaped diamonds, surrounded by a bed of approximately 24 solitaire-cut diamonds, along with the diamond-studded Giants logo, plus 37 blue sapphires. The inside of the band is engraved by Tiffany & Co., "T & Co. AU 585," and there's also the inspirational engraving, "FINISH / ALL IN." Near Mint condition. Accompanied by the original "NY 2011 WORLD CHAMPIONS" wooden presentation box (5" x 5" x 2-1/2").
As a point of comparison on the value of Super Bowl XLVI player rings, it's important to note that Giants tackle Martin Parker's 2011 championship ring sold for over $40,000 in our recent February auction.
