SO,,, here is a much easier example! This posted by 'Mike' some years ago:

This fantasy ring has been around at least since the 1970s as I myself have seen them as early as 1973.... I'm sure they have been around way before so this is a early fantasy pattern!

The 'SS Officers Belt Buckle Ring'..



Some have incredible detail and made very nicely,,thin band , good finish etc.. Some made like junk..
This one is halfway. Kind of good detail to cartouche,,,but thick band and unclear hallmarks. On the real nice examples of this pattern you will see that the emblem on ths sides of the band is actually the Snipers Badge! Why? Who the hell knows grin

So,, no matter how nice. aged or if came in a 'lot' of all authentic items,,,,,this IS a fantasy ring to beware of!
