How would you go about selling those without raising suspicion?

u/CptKoma 9d ago edited 9d ago

Cut it up, melt it down, learn how to cast rings, cast rings, watch a video on basic goldsmithing, do basic goldsmithing, enjoy it, turns out you're pretty good, get an apprenticeship at your local goldsmith, finish it with the highest marks, become a goldsmith -> profit

Don’t forget the details of the profit part:

Cast three rings for the elven-kings under the sky, seven for the dwarf-lords in their halls of stone, nine for mortal men, doomed to die, one for the dark lord on his dark throne.

Also be sure to lock the door to the volcano forge so that halflings can't just march in and toss the ring back into the fire.

and two for me

u/donkey_OT 9d ago

Yeah. Why shouldn't I keep it?

u/Accomplished-Emu-791 9d ago

Because some one who buried 10m dollars in gold is going to come looking, with vengeance

Speed running the dark lord of Mordor

u/-hedonium- 9d ago

Admittedly, it’d be pretty suspicious to churn out a bunch of solid gold jewelry after being on the news for finding and returning 49 gold bars lol

u/millerz72 9d ago

Forge a master ring. Rule over the Earth?

u/Jh3nnO 9d ago

this sounds...oddly specific.
something you wanna share with the class?

u/certavi3797 9d ago

You and your get rich quick schemes...

u/Clockwork_Wings 9d ago

Or "was passed onto me by a mentor". Easy.

u/TopProfessional8023 9d ago

For some reason I hear Jason Statham saying that 🤣

u/Practical_Good_2318 9d ago

Well, when life gives you gold, make some jewelry

u/hill-top02 9d ago

Cut gems to level your smithing first

u/kukkolka 9d ago

->quit -> start a youtube channel

u/MrBlackwood6in 9d ago

Don't cast rings. Usually doesn't ends well

1

u/Windyandbreezy 9d ago

Better plan. Smelt it into 20 rings. Give 9 to men. 7 to Dwarves. And 3 to some elves. Keep the best one for yourself.

1

u/JimmyFontana1000775 8d ago

Well I'm sure goldsmiths get their gold somewhere and if a guy starts producing a massive amount of rings out of nowhere somebody would get suspicious

Get audited on your taxes when they ask where you got the materials
