Hi, I am interested in buying a very good copy and found what is stated as a "High End Copy" for $300.00 on the following websit http://www.nazijewelry.com/Deathshead_Rings/deathshead_rings.html
The pictures look good and the description regarding the time and effort in creating this too. I would be very grateful for some oppinions.
Thanks

Not a bad copy.. Side views the runes and leaves look good.. But,the band is too thick. Kind of looks weird..
The members here have/own a wide range of copy HRs.. Maybe they'll come in and give you more opinions and how they like their rings....,G.

I'd like to find a good copy also. I've bought a couple from the Germania site a couple years ago that seemed better than most.

That $300. ring pictured above looks very thick compared to the originals in Don's book and those pictured on this site. Does the engraving look right also?

I bought a VERY good copy (the best I have ever seen) but the company is out of business. I did so for my book. It's about a size 8.5. If you don't mind having "Gottlieb" as the name inside, I'd sell mine for $500 (I paid more than that). It will be pictured in my book, due out in late fall of this year. The only drawback is the engraving inside. From the otuside, it's amazing.

GReat offer Craig.. Maybe a potential buyer could even have the engraving taken down and re-engraved if they wish..If you have time maybe throw a photo up here..

There's some very good copy high end HRs out there. If you have patience and keep searching you'll find a good copy. Here's a pretty good copy for under $200 [as of posting time]..

They aren't cheap and you usually won't get a chance for a return so make sure its the one you want! Good luck....,G.
