H.G.E. stands for Heavy Gold Electroplate, so it's not solid gold but gold plate on some base metal. Gold plate has the look of real gold without the cost of solid gold, so is commensurately less valuable.

It's a ring 18 kt HGE real gold?
If something is stamped "18K HGE" it is not real gold. The letters "HGE" is a quality mark used for costume jewelry, and it stands for "Heavy Gold Electroplate". The item that is electroplated has a very thin layer of gold that has been applied to its base metal, which is usually brass. This is considered "costume" jewelry since it is not gold through and through. 18KT HGE is absolutely REAL gold and in fact, the electroplating on HGE is "heavy" therefore it is quite good quality. Just because the ring is not solid gold doesn't mean the gold isn't real. The peice you have, if it appears in good condition, is very good quality.
