It’s hard to make out all the markings. I will upload another image of the markings to the left of Mexico.

Re: Silver ring with colorful stone

If it’s signed and the maker is well known it could be worth more.
Trying to make it out. Looks like ARC 925. Maybe ARC could be the maker and 925 the silver stamp. I can’t make out the rest except for Mexico. My guess is a ring like this would sell on eBay for $10 - $30.
This ring (though I can’t tell in pics) is signed ARC also https://www.etsy.com/listing/742405006/vintage-1980s-taxco-arc-ta-07-me…
