This is an official Tiffany \u0026amp; Co. salesman sample nearly indistinguishable from that issued to manager Cito Gaston, made in 14k yellow gold with cubic zirconia stones in place of diamonds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #fffbf0; border-left: 4px solid #c8940a; padding: 16px 20px; margin: 20px 0; border-radius: 0 6px 6px 0;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: bold; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 0.06em; color: #7a5800; margin: 0 0 8px;\"\u003eWhat is a salesman sample?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.7; color: #1a1a1a; margin: 0;\"\u003eSalesman samples were produced by the ring manufacturer on the exact same machines and dies as the team-issued originals, meaning the construction, detail, and craftsmanship are completely identical. The primary difference is that samples use cubic zirconia (CZ) stones in place of diamonds. Everything else on this ring — the design, the gold, the engravings — is indistinguishable from the rings issued to the championship team. Samples like this were used by sales reps to showcase ring designs to team front offices, and were never sold to the public. That makes them exceptionally rare today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 16px; margin: 0 0 14px;\"\u003eUnder Cito Gaston's leadership, the 1993 Blue Jays posted a 95-67 record and rolled through the ALCS before facing a scrappy, star-studded Phillies club led by Lenny Dykstra, John Kruk, and Darren Daulton. Carter's blast made him just the second player ever to end a World Series with a home run, following Bill Mazeroski in 1960, and gave Toronto the first back-to-back titles by a Canadian franchise in MLB history — a distinction that still stands today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; margin-bottom: 24px;\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #c8940a;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; font-weight: 700; width: 40%; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eChampionship\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e1993 World Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; font-weight: 700; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStyle\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eCito Gaston, Manager (Staff-issued)\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #c8940a;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; font-weight: 700; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eSalesman sample\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; font-weight: 700; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e14k Yellow Gold\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #c8940a;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; font-weight: 700; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eStones\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eCubic zirconia (CZ)\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; font-weight: 700; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eTiffany \u0026amp; Co.\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color: #c8940a;\"\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; font-weight: 700; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eResult\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eToronto Blue Jays defeated Philadelphia Phillies, 4 games to 2\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; font-weight: 700; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003eRegular Season Record\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003ctd style=\"padding: 10px 14px; border: 1px solid #e0e0e0;\"\u003e95-67\u003c\/td\u003e\n  \u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-weight: 700; text-transform: uppercase; letter-spacing: 0.06em; color: #FFFFFF; margin: 0 0 12px; border-top: 1px solid #e0e0e0; padding-top: 18px;\"\u003e1993 Toronto Blue Jays World Series Ring — Quick Facts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul style=\"font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.7; color: #FFFFFF; padding-left: 20px; margin: 0 0 24px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003eJoe Carter's Game 6 walk-off home run was only the second World Series-ending home run in MLB history, after Bill Mazeroski's in 1960.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003eThis was Toronto's second consecutive World Series title, making them the first Canadian franchise to repeat as champions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003eCito Gaston managed the Blue Jays across two stints (1989-97 and 2008-10), winning five division titles and back-to-back World Series in 1992 and 1993.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli style=\"margin-bottom: 8px;\"\u003eBlue Jays hitters John Olerud, Paul Molitor, and Roberto Alomar finished 1-2-3 in the American League batting race in 1993.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGame 4 of this series was the highest-scoring game in World Series history, a 15-14 Toronto win.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eAuthenticity Guaranteed.
