If the mark is actually 14KT HGE that would be Heavy Gold Electroplate….

What does Lind mean on jewelry?

Hi, Jewelry marked Lind is from the Lindenwold company.

Is 14K HGE real gold?

“14K HGE” stands for 14 karat heavy gold electroplate”. This means that the ring is made of some type of metal, possibly brass, over which a layer of gold is plated.

14K GEP or 14K GE.

The “GE” or “GEP” in this stamp stands for “gold electroplated.” It indicates that the jewelry is plated with 14K gold via electroplating — a process in which a thin layer of 14K gold is applied to the base metal using an electric current.
