Odal, I'm sorry, but the truth is in comparison.
My friend Oleg today kindly provided me with a variety of types of these LW rings.
So we think that the second ring on the left is identical to my ring.
All the rings are original, and please pay attention to the variety of production stamps.

Best regards,
Sergey

All in all a difficult theme.
I can only tell my opinion and what i have seen over the years in collecting such rings.
And as every collector i learn every day.

Otherwise i can`t imagine that there are so much different dies for one pattern, sold be one company. Usually there is one mother die to make the working dies.
A mystery for me if this different rings are all should be made from the same company.

Still a short remark:
I lost my unconditionally trust in diggers still years ago. Real sorry to have to say that.

Let`s here what the other guys here think.

For comparison, Oleg's ring and my ring. In my opinion they are identical.

Otherwise (we forget backside in moment), while looking close on the real large and good pic on vk.com i would say the plates of the 2 outer rings are the same and look like my 2 rings.
Front of the 2 middle rings more than your ring.

I'm sorry my friend:

"For comparison, Oleg's ring and my ring. In my opinion they are identical."

Both those rings are very good cast fakes..AND if you look very closely you will see many differences between the 2.. All thru the 1970s I've seen these rings,,from vets and in auctions. Then all thru the 80s the same thing. Then same in beginning of 90s. late 90s, now,,we see these fakes. By the way silver survives pretty good in the ground,,nesilber doesn't no matter what the soil. I've heard every digger story, "there is no Oxygen because of the clay. the ring was sealed in a foot locker we dug up, [sorry getting off point here],I've heard every story and seen some bad things..
Sorry over 20 years of seeing the same pattern with the same characteristics. They are German made, with same mother die and sold to Luft soldiers.
The USSR break up and we see 'variants from Russia,Ukraine,Poland, the Baltic countries. No, my opinion they are fakes and show characteristics of being fakes. Hey, thats me,my opinion,,your happy then great, we can agree to disagree...
