I think stardustwin is right....this sounds like an anniversary band. Typically with 3 stones (for past, present and future as dubbed by the diamond mafia better known as DeBeers) or with diamonds all around, it is a popular gift at major anniversaries. The plain one is probably the original band.

Of course there are some people like me who wear 2 binds for style reasons. I have a very inexpensive wedding band (plain gold, thin. I thinkt hey were about $25 bucks each on sale) on either side of my engagement ring. At first glance it looks like 1 large band with ridges.
