Although, not normally applied to silver, it is the purity designation of the precious metal. It stands for karat. 24k is pure or 100%. Therefore, 14K is 14/24 or 58.3% pure. It is more common for a 3 digit number to be associated with the purity of silver. For example, 500 silver is 50%. Sterling silver, by legal definition, is 92.5% pure and is marked 925 silver.
Pure silver is too soft by itself to be used for jewelry or coins. It is alloyed with another metal, usually copper but could be nickel, in order to make it harder.
It's probably 14k white gold. If there are no other markings behind or in front of the 14k mark.
It might be solid gold, but it might not be. Sometimes there is a letter that identifies the maker, and sometimes this comes after the 14K mark. There is always a space between the 14K mark and the maker's mark and the maker's mark is often a different style of lettering than the 14K.
On the other hand, rings that are not solid gold, but are gold plated will often have something like 14KP or 14KGP which stands for 14K plate or gold plated.
A professional jeweler can test it for you. Good luck!
Update: 14KP does NOT mean Plate, it mean Plum or pure...check it out on Google or with any jeweler. KGP is plate and RGP is plate. NOT KP
