The Thurston CarteKansas City Chiefs have three Super Bowl victories in the past five NFL seasons, each coming in increasingly dramatic fashion. It's only appropriate, then, that their Super Bowl 58 championship ring is their gaudiest yet.

The Chiefs unveiled their Super Bowl rings commemorating their 2023 championship Thursday night as players received their rings in a team ceremony.

This year's rings, made by Jostens, have 529 diamonds — 505 round diamonds, 19 baguette diamonds and five marquise diamonds — and 38 rubies, per the team. As is the case with most rings these days, the diamond and ruby counts are loaded with symbolism: the word "world" on the top has 39 diamonds to represent the number of touchdowns the Chiefs scored last season, while the accompanying "champions" has 70 diamonds to represent the points scored in the Chiefs' three AFC playoff victories, just to single out a few.

The coolest feature is probably the diagram of the game-winning play (affectionately called "Tom & Jerry") that defeated the San Francisco 49ers in overtime in February's Super Bowl, which can be seen on the underside of the top of the ring when you open it up. That diagram is apparently done up in coach Andy Reid's handwriting.

The Super Bowl 58 triumph marked the fourth time the Chiefs lifted the Lombardi Trophy (1969, 2019, 2022, 2023). They're the first team to go back-to-back since the 2003-2004 New England Patriots and this fall they will attempt to become the first franchise to win the Super Bowl in three consecutive seasons.

Stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce were seen showing off all three of their rings for the cameras in a video shared by the Chiefs.
