In the Moment i have this ring in Hands and can get it for not to much Money.
Brass, looks die struck (i can`t see any signs of casting), the enamel real doesn`t look good made, but ist for sure opaque enamel.
Please your opinions!
Knows anybody here exact this pattern?
Thanks!

nice... Well the swords appear to be the German type [Wound Badge] but the helmet reminds me of Swiss [?].
Construction, materials appear fine. Finnland made a lot of wartime rings, unit pins etc.
Come on guys dig,,someone has something on this...

Thanks G.!
But a swiss helmet? For me more like a stylized german helmet.
I think a ring worth to hold it.

Hey Odal,
I don't believe I've seen one like that, with crossed swords and helmet. Whether or not it's a German or Swiss helmet wouldn't matter much for me because it's a nice ring. I like it.

Oh I agree,,absolutely a ring to hold on to!
I only mention Swiss because I've seen a ring with a red cross on it and similar helmet and it was a Swiss border protection ring.
Could very well be German. And it certainly looks to be period. Something will turn up on this,,we must keep our eyes open!

I had this pattern before. For me a nice ring. The ringband is very worn, but is exactly the pattern, i've seen with enameled Lw rings.

Thanks friends.
Yes, the band pattern i know too. I have a similar luft ring as wolfs. But this rings aren�t as massive as this one. Their backsite is "hollow".

Yes, looking like fine period rings. It seems yours have still some plating on it.

Their backsite is "hollow". Sorry friends, sorry Marc! I made a bad mistake. While thinking a Little on this ring, i took a similar luft ring from my collection for comparing. And yes, Marc is to 100 % right! Absolutely same rings - i would say the same manufacturer. Here some quick shots:

WOW, interesting ring...my Grandfather probably wore one of those! He certainly had his wounds, for sure! Twice severely wounded in battle, third time to never return... :-o
