Looking at that engraving, features suggest an engraving made with ring already seamed.....while typical Gahr engraving suggest they usually made it on ring still open and flat.


Conseguently we can have 3 assumptions :


1) the ring is a super fake by casting , so they had no chance than to engrave it that way


2) the ring is original, but for some reason it was re-engraved........postwar ?


3) Gahr engraver had a very bad day.....
