The rings, which were located at Kirk's Collectibles at Anderson Mall, would be worth over $15.7 million if they were authentic, per South Carolina Secretary of State spokesperson Shannon Wiley.

Lyn Riddle of The State noted that the stash included 157 Super Bowl, 83 NBA Finals, 99 World Series, 29 Stanley Cup and unnamed 251 NCAA sports rings.
