Well u know my opinion it appears to be a nice original piece, early too. There were lots of designs on these "tank tread" rings- this one really almost looks like a 20s memento Mori, because of the flowers.. regardless I say early prob small sized and very thin and delicate.

Never seen this band pattern on a skull ring.
But from the whole apearance it looksnot bad to me.
Hollow skull, visible seam behind skull.
I think too mostly a pre war ring and not military
related.

Love the flowers man..unique piece, rare that it still has paint in the eyes...def German made too (note the "800") so I'd say a quality skull, esp w the floral pattern and odal is right these were not nec military could be memento/mourning or a number of things. I'll post some military ones later- have a great cutoff piece taken by a Luxembourgish vet (I already know who wants this one if I ever sell!!)
