1973 New York Mets National League Championship Ring

The 1973 New York Mets National League Championship Ring is a notable piece of baseball history, commemorating the Mets’ triumph over the Cincinnati Reds in the NLCS. While the Mets ultimately lost the World Series to the Oakland Athletics, this ring represents their remarkable postseason run. Several authentic rings from the 1973 season have been auctioned.

• Willie Mays’ Ring: Presented to the legendary player, this ring features a diamond-studded baseball on a blue stone, with “1973 N.L. Champions N.Y. Mets” inscribed. The left shank showcases “MAYS 24” and the team logo, while the right displays Shea Stadium and a Mets cap.
• Casey Stengel’s Ring: Given to the Mets’ vice president, this ring mirrors Mays’ in design but includes “Stengel, VP” on the left shank. It also features game scores from the NLCS and images of Shea Stadium and a Mets cap on the right.

The 1973 New York Mets’ National League Championship Ring symbolizes one of the most improbable and dramatic seasons in baseball history
