I get emails all the time asking,,"hey Gaspare want to sell some rings?",,, well, No..

Rings have been popular for some years now. The availability has shrunk. There was a finite amount made and they have been going. It's very hard to find an authentic WW2 era military theme ring lately.. Authentic rings have increased in value very fast in the nazi regalia world!

For those wanting to start.. Don't look for the high zoot LAH, skull and SS runes ring. 99% your going to get burnt as a beginner.

Built slowly. Get some variety that won't break you.

This silver skull and bones ring is currently for sale. Its a rare pattern. Almost always damaged. The skull is hollow affixed on and when new was highly finished and has a Ln or Laurin mark. A mark that signified the ring was made to a high finish. It's damaged,,so what!. It went thru WW2 from the losing side! A great starter ring.

for those who prefer mint,,,there are starter pieces out there..

The mega classic WestWall wire wound ring.. They are usually very good prices and in good condition. Another great starter ring and as mentioned they are in good condition.

Also attached it a French Eiffel Tower enamel ring. It's nice. Could be from 1950!.. You do and will find them dated,,a 1941 etc. date would be great ring to have. Most Germans/nazis awarded R&R or stationed in France usually bought something like this for themselves, a wife, a family member..

You can go other ways.. There was the Axis and occupied countries. Italian, CZ, Latvian etc etc.. OR how about a Allied ring!

U.S. enamel rings especially have risen sharply in value when you can find them.. If you go that war grab what you can,, heavy worn,,or nice condition like this one attached..

Quick word on 'Campaign or Trench' made rings.. Rings made from a scrap metal a skilled soldier would find and either decorate it himself,,or give to a buddy to do,,or buy/ trade from the indigenous populace. They are nice pieces. Some don't like them even dated examples because they could have been made at any time. They usually are less expensive. There are some very nice examples out there and even collectors that just collect this type! Having a few in your collection certainly wouldn't debase it and are of value and nice to have a few..

Happy hunting guys!. Remember there are over 50 back pages here of rings to see/look thru and of course any are welcomed to show and ask before they spend!...,G.
