Hi,
Here's another one... This ring looks like so-called Trench Art but it’s almost too good to be true: SS, LAH, Russia…

It is made of a heavy alloy of some sort, definitely not silver. The name engraved inside the band (by an amateur?) looks like Walter Rümmler. There even seems to be an umlaut above the letter ‘u’. No other marks other than those poorly scratched SS runes.

I like this ring but it’s a strange one. When these things look too good to be true, they usually are! I won't hold my breath but what do you think?

Thanks again,
Stephen

a guy was making them 20 years ago!! Remember them,,some of the others will too.
He also made a crazy DAK ring with a HR skull on front and SS engravings all over it..

Yeah, let someone else get that one!

God that thing is terrible. Even if it were real the engraving and the casting flaw are about as bad as it gets.
