I'd carefully inspect the inside of the ring for a marking such as 10K, 14K, 18K, etc. If you see a marking such as 583 or .583, thats the percentage of gold (583=14K).
Or it could also be gold filled, which is a copper or silver core with a very thick coating of gold, but I don't know how such would be marked.
