Frank Viola 1987 Minnesota Twins World Championship Ring
The 1987 Twins shocked the world by winning the 1987 World Series, upsetting the heavily-favored Tigers in the ALCS and Cardinals in the Fall Classic for the Twin Cities' first baseball championship. This salesman's sample ring is EX-MT with "VIOLA" on one shank with his number "16." Hall of Famer Sparky Anderson once said of Frank: "He's an artist; I love watching him work..." There are dazzling diamondesque cz's in the Minnesota "M" leading the top. The 10 karat gold ring by Jostens has its stamping and additional sample numbers inside the band to ensure authenticity. The blue semiprecious stone on top does have a very slight crack which is well enough left alone but could be easily replaced by any jeweler for a nominal sum. "Sweet Music" Viola was World Series MVP that year, thus handily earning this prize. The ring size 11.
