Hello Evgeniy,

the Latin word DUX (DUCE in Italian language) means leader : like Fuehrer (German) or Caudillo (Spanish), Poglavnic (Croatian)...ecc

Eamonn,

Good to see these rings.

The first ring has no band? Looking at Mussolini's hear , it's an early one( still not complete bold ).
The last ring I see Mussolini with helmet as an eldery man.

The ring invasion of Albania a document and an excelent ring.

Do you know what is depicted on the Etheopia ring?

I don't have an Italian ring in my collection; only a scarf ring which I showed before on the forum and a supporter's pin.
I think it's Italian ; note the swastica ....

Your last ring E...very nice a swastica and Italian fasces worn by Italians .
Posted By: Gaspare Re: Italy ring - 04/20/2008 04:10 PM
*ringman,,very nice! some of the Italian rings were very cheaply made. I have a similar 'youth' ring,,by the time it got to me it was in 2 pieces!

Here's one of my best Italian rings from an old topic:
http://daggers.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/74097573/m/1310016184

And,,here's a Para ring,

ringman,,was there enamel in that Ethiopia ring? Any stampings inside band?

*Benten, yeah, just noticed the reversed swas.on the pin. Is it double sided?

They liked their skull rings, too....Good photos, guys. A Mussolini ring is definitely on my want list.

Aemonn, thanks for your information. Your first ring with the Mussolini head is probably a scarf ring with a small thin band .

Badbob, it's good to hear from you.
This Italian skullring looks a bit like Mussolini .
Posted By: Gaspare Re: Italy ring - 04/25/2008 03:43 AM
Very interesting.. One of my buddies has one. He's had it for years ,,from a good source and with the other items it came with its a WW2 Italian piece.

*BB, if you get a chance post a few more photos of it for the guys to check out..
Bronze? with a Gold wash?

I'd say yes, Bronze with remains of a gold wash. A different colour than any of my Brass rings, anyway...Has parts of a "seam" visible both inside and outside the band.

Band is thicker than most, if not all, of my German skull rings, and semi-circular.
