Hi, i buy this ring in a lot many years ago, its marked 835. But is original? i see anothers ring of this type but any have this detail.

Thanks.

Looks like a nice one of a common pattern.
Good pics of the backsite of the plate could be helpful.

bad lighting is making it look weird. They do make good copies of this pattern so you must be careful.
- I agree, some more/better photos inside and out..

In this topic are some pics of this pattern for comparing:

Thanks, more pics!!!

this looks good first glance,,,but I have a couple concerns..
I can not get to my rings at the present time..

This ring needs a very close comparison / scrutiny done with it,,some of our members own silver examples of this ring and maybe can help..

Please if time check the topic Odal linked and your rings..
I may be prematurely worrying but better safe than sorry!

I had one of these examples a feew months ago - I see here more red flags than things I like,

the quality is by far too poor.

IMO not original

To compared, i merged these two ring in one image. I think it's of the period.

points in common

Here a pic of a heavenly worn relic but 100% original. It gives us some nice details which are not seen on your ring, see the ringband, the backplate and the silver mark....

My ring have the backplate very similar and identical to anothers. The hallmark yes its different, but i see this hallmarks in anothers ring of this type. The cantine skull rings have many hallmarks differents... and the model of ring are identical.

I will try my best to make some better pics of my ring to comparing.
It has the same content-stamp as yours medianoche.

still here a link without coment:

Ok, here we go!
Some little better pics from my ring to comparing.
All in all i think both rings are exact the same pattern. But mine has more wearing.
In the case of my ring i have no doubt that it is a period one. And so in my opinion the other ring is a good one - in better condition - too.

and:

Sorry friends!
I think i made a bad mistake and found the ring of the beginning:

Now i think its a ring that belongs to the topic "super-fakes"

Sorry again - my fault!

Here is MilitaryNuts example I saw this past weekend. A very nice upper end variation..
But,, none have the 'marks' along the upper part of the wing,,and all have the exaggerated eyebrow..

Sorry to condemn without having it in hand but I believe the ring that started out this topic is a excellent fake,,worthy as Odal mentions being called a SuperFake.. Problem is that hopefully they won't be reading this site to fix the problems!
