How would I find my parents stolen rings?

Our house was recently pillaged by a thief. With him, the thief took my parents' wedding bands. They are incredibly unique - the bands look like sea sponge, covered in yellow gold, with diamonds dusted throughout the bands. If these rings were to surface, where would you suspect them to show up? I know it's a long shot, but I would love to be able to recover them for my parents. Any advice? I live three hours away, so I can't visit any pawn shops there, but if you were a thief, how would you get rid of these rings? I'm hoping that I can at least attempt a search.

Hi, Page. I'm sorry for your parent's misfortune, and glad to see of your desire to help, but I doubt that this web page can help you much. Not to mention that I'm sure the police already advised you of the danger of getting involved this way.

Regards,

Ted Mooney, P.E.
