Here's a ring and box I bought last week. It's marked on the outer ring 830 twice. The box has a dual headed eagle on the top and I was told it was an Austrian WWI ring.

Any opinions are welcome.

Kris.

I'm sure I've seen this type ring before but never with the box,great find. When you get time would you mind posting some close ups of the marks. Thank you.

silver marks. I've found the Jewellers name on Google mentioning J. Hausenblas joined some 'Gesellschaft für Landeskunde' in 1918.

Hi kris,
Is the silver content mark 830 or 330? And a close up of the maker mark please. Thank you.

kris,
Picture angle of the silver content mark has me. You mentioned it was 830, and I'm sure it's 830 but you never know so had to ask. Forget what I posted, I'm blind. Is there no maker mark on the ring? Still a very nice set and that box is great. Thanks for showing it.
