We examine valuations on a rational function field K(x, y) and analyze their behavior when restricting to an underlying polynomial ring K[x, y]. Motivated to solve the ideal membership problem in polynomial rings using Moss Sweedler's framework of generalized Gröbner bases, we produce an infinite collection of valuations v : K(x, y) → Z ⊕ Z such that v(K[x, y] * ) is reversely well-ordered. In addition, we construct a surprising example where v(K[x, y] * ) is nonpositive, yet not reversely well ordered.
