The One Ring to Rule Them All. Once upon a time there was an online tutorial, but it's long gone. This ring has nothing left of that anyway. I surfaced this by starting from a very nice base gold texture from The Worms of Art. I added a little bump to give it a slightly rough and mottled surface. The text was provided via a Lord of the Rings SuperFan site (both the required font, and a file with the complete text within). A little work in Illustrator and Photoshop, and there we go!
