I was reading the whole post lot with extreme caution and interest.This is a SERIOUS thread, and so far away from my knowledge and identification skills.
Josias, have in mind that in less developed countries than US, where high tech machinery isn't available, crafters could duplicate a ring only by pictures in a very reasonable price.Also, this could be a copy of any similar HR as it has differences in the bones, IMO.And could encrave any name on the wax easily, and simply have it on the ring once casted...
