UBB.threads Forums Uniform & Accessories The Honor Ring Forum Received today (I know this are not TK rings)

Still finding funny (interesting) stuff around....

anything if fine,,old rings, cufflinks, tie pins, watch fobs,,they're all good!

I have that Soviet ring also. Had it for 30 years. I've never been able to get a time period on it..

Again two nice rings.
Both not my area in collceting but i like them both.
The second one is a rather common wwI pattern.
Here in Germany we call this rings for the 4 nations
"Achsen"-ring. So called you see sometimes period adverts.

ring not Soviet Union, it likely Germany or Bulgaria some think like this

The first one, E.?
Real not UDSSR?
For sure no german too.
Would be interesting witch Nation!

Maybe Czechoslovakia ?

Yes Odal, I mean first ring

When I browse internet all the time find more and more rings. I'm trying to focus on German pieces but sometimes cant resist to buy rings I find interesting. This time kind of patriotic Polish ring. Really heavy one guess pre 1945 because of the eagles crown. Maybe I'm wrong. The eagle is riveted. Can not see the markings because it is half away. Any thoughts ?

No idea, but partisan ww2 would be cool. I know they used the colors at least red and white.

Someting like it ring I have and inside engraving date ~ 38 or 39 years
It ring usealy patriotics
I think it was made before ww2, because in war time I think not previously been )))

Show us please.

I've had mine for many years.. Problem is a well know fake/fantasy/surplus catalog in the late 70s sold them.. So s fake, fantasy or surplus!?

My wife says a fake/fantasy,,because the emblem isn't correct!

Thanks for sharing this advert!

This polish ring - very nice looking!
What material are this red/white inlays?

I have no idea what are this white red inlays made of. I will try to discover it asking someone more familiar with jewelery.

On this pic it looks like a kind of plastic - maybe bakelit or galalith?
For sure interesting!

Thats interesting, and is it a Hammer or a maul? Actually guys, help me out...is it a hammer or a maul on the flag?

Which ring do You mean ?

By the way this two pieces arrived yesterday :-). Looks like I'm cleaning whole Polish market :-)

[nice pattern Norge ring!]

The Soviet emblem isn't correct according to my wife. She should know [former Komsomol leader]... It is slightlt different,,but does it make it a 'fantasy ring'[?]

Could it be another communist nation state or organization emblem? Or maybe they made it in the press the right way, but.... Well, it would leave the right mark on someone if it was used in a fight, that's for sure!

Going deeper in Pol rings. Here is another one. Enjoy.

hey that's great! You got another one..

This example has the eagle wearing the crown. So its pre war and wartime ,until the commies took over.. Poland had a lot of hallmarks. I'm surprised there are none in the band. Maybe polished out?

Who knows I have just noticed this "800" on both.

Today the ring with initials GR. It belonged to Luftwaffe officer and was found in Schweinemunde (Swinoujscie - POLAND) with pilots badge and portrait (of the owner I guess). Unfortunetly grouping was sold separately. Anyway beliveing or not this story I find this ring really nice and worth of showing here. It is a silver piece with gold plate.

Any idea what the initials mean?

For instance Gerhard Rhode :-).

But now it is barely impossible to find out who it was and what this initials means :-(.

-

That my friend is a beautiful ring!

If you cant't get the grouping sometimes the owner will let you hace scans/copies,photos of it,,always worth to ask and maybe get!

New one - silver marked 835 or 833. Sould add -dug found :-)

I like how these rings are supposed to be "all bones" what with the band being fashioned into bones themselves. Whats neat too is so many rings don't have much going on after the sides and front, the back of the rings are just bands really...they kind of go downhill dramatically in terms of both art and quality on the back end...these ones are supposed to represent a holistic concept, and there's art being used even where the ring is not visible to the viewer...but it's known by the wearer...I really dig that artistic sense of completing the circle, if you will...

I guess nothig special here but as a Pole I thought I should share this one because it is Polish. Polish Military Navy silver ring (Marynarka Wojenna). Nice job and nice markings. Silver 925. Enjoy...

Nice looking and never seen till now.
Thanks for sharing here!

Nice ring, like the swords too!

This arm with the swort it is a symbol: "Armed arm of the navy".

What is period when it was used?

I think it is a post war ring used till today. I will make a research and share my info.

Thanks for the swords tidbit, that's pretty interesting! Looks nice even if post war.

G. , not really liking that skull w bone band ring. Content looks cast in, hi heat, not a good cast,,pretty sure that's a postwar piece..

Your Polish Navy ring is cool! I'm surprised we haven't seen a Polish hallmark yet? You Navy ring hallmark might be able to be IDed,,maybe a better photo will help..

Dear Gaspare, I'm pretty sure You will be able to say more when I will post more detailed pictures of the skull ring. If I got burned this will hurt not much because paid not too big money :-). This one came from a good source but sometime s***t happens.

As for Polish ring the markings these are typical proof markings for silver. It is a lady head with number 925 and letter B for city Bydgoszcz where the ring was proofed. The secound marking this are initial of the manufacturer WS I guess.

Will drop additional pictures when time permits.

Each day new stuff. I would never know so many rings around.

#1 - trench made German ring dated 1942 and place JALTA. I do not know what is in front of the ring but it looks like high shore with building and sailboat.

#2 - USMC ring nice marked and extra letters inside "ACe" - what does it means ?

#3 - Polish ternch job - I can not point it in time but eagle crown indicates it as a pre war piece.

I guess I know what author wanted to show on Jalta ring. This is Swallow's Nest and Aurora Cliff in Jalta.

Ace looks like intitials maybe. Great pic of swallows nest, that's it! I have always been fascinated by that scene. Dramatic!
