It looks like a "Carnelian" stone... which, is, strange... see this bullshit site for weirdness: https://www.crystalvaults.com/crystal-encyclopedia/carnelian

"A glassy, translucent stone, Carnelian is an orange-colored variety of Chalcedony, a mineral of the Quartz family. Its color varies from pale pinkish-orange to a deep rusty brown, though it is most known for its brilliant orange and red-orange crystals. Its name comes from a Latin word meaning "flesh."

In antiquity, as well as today, Carnelian is believed to help timid speakers become both eloquent and bold."

That could be a Georgetown Ring? Or something to do with the Jesuits at Georgetown U. He went there and teaches there. He also studied to become a Jesuit but never finished. Just looked it up and it is not. It looks very familiar to me. The "flesh" part is freakish. I understand the stone but what is the G for? Still I think it is the style of a High School Ring. Free Masons?

Thank you. I am going to check around because feel as though it is familiar, like I have see it before.

Wow that brings back memories. Yes, that term used to be used decades ago. Men wore them and they were usually a luxury item. But they also could be a high school ring or any type of ring with emblem or logo or school insignia. My grandfather had one and it was very nice. He had a crest from Hungary on it but he lost it. It was quite beautiful. But it looked nothing like Podesta's. Yes, in the ad Prince Charles is wearing one, I wonder what that one means.
