Offered here is an absolutely stunning 2009 Montreal Alouettes Grey Cup Champions player's ring issued to defensive tackle Keron Williams who spent two seasons (2008-09) with the Alouettes. Born in Jamaica Williams played college football at the University of Massachusetts before entering the Canadian Football League in 2006. He would later switch to defensive end and win a second Grey Cup Title in 2011 as a member of the B.C. Lions where he also led the CFL in sacks (12) in 2012.

Made of 10 karat white gold the striking ring sparkles with 142 individually cut real diamonds on the face as well as four alternating ruby and sapphire stones (two each). "MONTREAL" is spelled out in diamonds across the face over a large trophy cup in the background. One shank has "WILLIAMS" in large raised lettering at the top with "COUPE GREY CUP CHAMPIONS" in smaller font just below. The Alouettes team name and logo appear at center flanked by "20--09". Williams' jersey number "90" in large raised lettering appears at the bottom. The other shank has a nice background depiction of mountains with a diamond studded football going through the uprights of a goal post followed by the score of the game--"MTL 28 - SASK 27"--along with "WIN THE DAY" and "17-3" (Montreal's season record) in raised letters and numbers. A large "57 + 3" is embossed inside the band signifying how the Montreal Alouettes' head coach at the time Marc Trestman (longtime NFL assistant offensive coordinator and brief head coach of the Chicago Bears) described the CFL as "a race for 57 minutes then three minutes of heart ache."

The gorgeous ring comes in a massive size 16 and weighs a hefty 84 grams. The maker is Intergold International. Overall the ring presents in NM-MT condition with moderate wear. It comes with its original presentation box with player/team name and "2009 Grey Cup Champions" on top. The box is in excellent condition on the outside but the interior padding as begun to erode. Comes directly from the player Keron Williams.
