Hi all,

Current auction (finishing Saturday) offers two honor rings (lots 01 and 23).

This auction is especially interesting, there are a lot of staff from the same SS member (SS-OGRUF.V.D.BACH-ZELEWSKI), his honor ring, his German Cross in gold, his knight's cross of the iron cross, and a long etcetera (no daggers frown )

Nothing for my pocket.

This is not publicity... I have nothing to do with this auction. Just to share with you... maybe someone may be interested.

Kind regards,


Marc

PD: sorry... the auction is here lol

Thanks for sharing!
I enjoy the pics, but the same as for you, not my size in spending money for hobby.
Same resizing method on the Bach Zelewski ring with the band addition as you will see on the ring I have for sale on our estand

Auction finished....

Rings closed at EUR 26.000 and 6.100 (best shape I've ever seen)... plus 17.5% for the aunctioner... so the famous one endet at 30.550 euros (36.500 u$s)... mein Gott!!!

Can you at least post pics of the rings on the forum instead the auction? Most frustrating to have to register/join the auction site just to view pics. Thanks
Ugh
Sorry ron
I tried

Thanks Mike
I like that date. Too bad the collection could not have been kept together.
Ron
Point I was making is
Here is a fine early 1920s
Piece for sale on our estand for 1/360th of the price
Same period sizing uniqueness of the double band
Incredibly detailed
Why not guys
Seems like a fair price just for the only crime of not having a swastika
Prob 10 years older than that fine HR too
110 USD now

... the only thing that matters is that the ring (the first I've) belonged this guy...

Marc,, that it did!! The is Eric v.d.Bachs HR!!

Years ago a member was going to auction more of his personal items. Mainly documents and they show some of them here!. Pretty sure his SS sword document and his SS HR document appeared here so the grouping has been split a few times.. Too bad,,imagine all of it at one time to see!
Posted By: Gaspare Re: TWO honor totenkopf rings on auction. - 12/09/2017 07:15 AM
heard the E.v.d.B. HR sold for BIG money,,over $20K if I remember correct!!
