On the surface, this eBay ring looks really nice - vent hole, materials, patterns, construction.... seems to be a nice Italian made dak- hallmark should say "800" and the lozenge has the right shape and a fasces- it should have a number and letter code too....but I'm concerned about the hallmark, it's hard to see...and more specifically- the line or "crack" running across the underside of the ring. Seller has a lot of nice items and I'm liking everything about this but the line and possibly the stamps, but I'm awaiting better pictures... what do you guys think? Thanks for any thoughts/comments.

I think its a good one, I like the design and Arabic writing for derna, its got the vent hole and Italian stamps,the damage,crack could have been caused at anytime during the last 70 years. jmho.

Pics are not good enaugh. But no real faults visible and more good than bad signs. In my opinion it has a good chance.

I think this ring is a good one. Shows all the features we should see on this rings. It is hollow inside, has a little hole, it is silver and is correctly marked. For me enough.

Hi all! IMO, this is a good, legit ring one of a couple Italian DAK's the seller had. It would be in my collection already if the seller would ship to the US. To me it has everything you should see in one of this type. Being hollow construction, these are easily damaged, and i have more than a few with dents and splits.
