I didn't really like this ring when I bought it in the 80's but over the years I have learned to appreciate it. Any opinions about it would be welcome. Thanks

Hi, dr.B.,
Yes I agree with Gaspare WW1 and/or freikorps.
The skull and bones are hollow on this ring, there are also known with a gold layer( I wonder also silver layer?).
It is a nice worn ring with patina I like .
In the recesses could be paint-blackening.

You did well not to remove the ring. smile
