NEW YORK YANKEES 1998 WORLD SERIES RING
A 1998 New York Yankees World Series Championship Ring, presented to Bobby Murcer. The 14k gold ring features diamonds studding Yankees logo "NY" on the ring face, set within an oval blue stone encircled by still more diamonds. "1998 World Champions" follows the perimeter in raised lettering. Murcer's name and the word "Tradition" frame a miniature Stadium and Series trophy on the left shank, while the right boasts of the remarkable win/lost record with the words "Best Ever" framing a Yankees hat and bat logo.
The ring is marked "Balfour 14K" on the interior, and weighs 34 grams.
Second only to the 1927 edition in the estimation of most baseball historians, the 1998 New York Yankees completed their four-game World Series sweep of the San Diego Padres to achieve a final record of 125-50, inclusive of their postseason victories.
Condition: Very good condition; some minor scratches.
Provenance:Letter of Provenance from the Murcer family. Letter of Authenticity from Alexander Bitar History.
