It looks good to me, Odal. Is that some type of tank destroyer insignia?

Tank destroyer/ panzerfaust? (I think this is exactly what panzerfaust means... yes?) looks good to me odal-- definitely old maybe pre WW2? German?

 look at the tank...WWII... a french Char C2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6dgLWKmLVJARing is struck from brass and has a silver plating. I bet not often seen. It seems my collecting year starts good.

The tank on the ring looks like a British Mark V, WW1 era. But the ring styling is definitely 1930's, so I believe the ring is WW2, probably early war. For sure a rare pattern, so a great find!

I would definitely say your collecting year is starting off good, agreed! Man odal - you are gonna go for a three-peat (3 times champion) for ring of the year! Anyone stepping up to the plate this year?

Thanks friends! But Mike and DAK1941 i have to disagree. No british tank. The French char 2c. A French WWII tank and the strongest this time (1940). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Char_2CCompare yourself. For me a 1940 ring for the French campaign:

I'd have to agree it looks like the French tank.

Odal, I stand corrected, you are definitely right. That comparison is spot on. And 1940 French campaign would make sense.
