Hm
Looks like a cast one. Band and "engraving" cast.
Not the badest fake i saw, but for sure you see at once the fake.

I think its a question of the price for this one. If very cheap - of course a cool wearer.
But i myself would give maybe a little more money for a much better and hand engraved fake for wearing

I bought one of these "Meyer" SSHR's from rings@sshonorrings.com. Not cheap, but a reasonably accurate copy for wearing and I am happy with it. Slightly undersized - v - an original, as is the usual case with casting from a master copy or original.

On the picture is poor kitchen grade casting with unacceptable gas porosity.


There are less original rings than you think, much less...

I own both them.

Meyer's repro has a convincing skull but shows obvious cast flaws, while Hapur's shows die struck quality with a less convincing skull (if compared with original ones). That said I personally wear Hapur's repro.
