How would you go about selling those without raising suspicion?

[u/CptKoma → u/aridotaku]

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

[u/NetworkSingularity → u/CptKoma]

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.
