In Pawn Stars season 4 episode 29, titled "The King's Bling," the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop in Las Vegas is presented with some intriguing items. The highlight of the episode is a diamond and gold signet ring that is claimed to have belonged to none other than Elvis Presley himself. The seller explains that the ring was given to his grandfather, who was a bodyguard at Graceland, over a casual conversation about jewelry with the King of Rock and Roll.
As always, the experts at the pawn shop call upon their own trusted appraisers to verify the authenticity of the ring. They also analyze the intricate details of the ring, such as the size and cut of the diamond and the design of the gold band. In addition to the Elvis ring, the shop is also presented with a World War II-era Japanese Wakizashi sword and a very old cello.

The negotiations between the sellers and the pawn shop staff are always entertaining, with each side trying to get the best deal possible.
