The Super Bowl LIX Championship Ring was crafted by Jason of Beverly Hills, measuring 41 millimeters in diameter and featuring a total of 12 carats in diamonds, with a combined weight of 140 grams. The ring is composed of white gold and features a green sapphire, symbolizing the Eagles' performance. With training camp just days away, we're examining eight hidden facts and details about the glitzy design.

Wings that pop out The rings also include a mechanism that allows the 'WINGS' to pop out of the ring and expand. 18 wins on the way to Super Bowl glory Philadelphia went 14-3 during the regular season and then won four more postseason games. To commemorate that journey, every ring has 18 stones at the top. Player name Every player has their name and signature on the dazzling ring. Ten points of diamonds Philadelphia went on a ten-game win streak after starting the season out 2-2, and the franchise had ten diamonds placed at the top of the ring to commemorate the streak.
