I am being offered this ring on trade for one of my items. Had it on another forum and they directed me here telling me I?d have better luck on an answer. They told me the number 835 is the silver percentage (83.5%). What was this awarded for and is it original? He has it valued at $650. Any help is appreciated.

My Advice would be this simple statement..."A multitude of counselors would be of GREAT VALUE in this case". Lets see what the consensus of the Forum is. They are the ones who have a collective knowledge that has been invaluable to me and others over the years.

I'm not an expert on these rings, but love the subject.

Well thanks guys, looks like I need to study up before getting into rings, or just keep making threads lol. (This would have been my 1st if it wasn?t for y?all).

yes a fantasy,,a 4th reich ring.. There are all sorts of super rare variants whistle and from all branches of their service... Leave them be..

Best advice for you,,,look at the topics pinned at the top... The WestWall topic, The Skulls, the Patriotic ring topic... Look at they quality. The thinness of the bands,,the glassy enamel, the inner band finish, etc. etc. Even the Cufflink topic....And plenty of back pages to look at too ,,so have a look, learn and enjoy....,G.
