Sniper,, no I'm pretty sure they realize its a postwar fantasy.. They just think its cool!.
Evgeniy... I think its because it could be worn and not known for what it really is.. Made from what appears to be real gold, and real gems. It is a handsome mens ring..

- Here is the description.. Made in Germany. In a special box. Resides currently in Saint Petersburg Russia.. $390.,,Thats a pretty good price for it! The condition of the ring watch the video on my You Tube - https://youtu.be/T9nKd-hH9ks.The gold ring is made of 925 silver, covered with 18 karat gold and placed in the original manufacturer's case. Beautiful brutal ring with stones, depicting swastika and runes, ring with side ornaments of oak leaves-a symbol of military valor. Excellent manual study of an ornament by the master jeweler. Left and right of the stones caused the rune "N" is the symbol of collectivism and comradely mutual assistance reigning in the ranks of the SS, was used in the divisional standard of the 6th SS Mountain Division of the Waffen SS "Nord". Next rune " swastika "is the symbol of the SS and the third Reich, then the rune" Salvation sign "- a symbol of success and luck - the elements of the runic ornamentation and" Hagallrun " - a symbol of the resilience of faith (in the Nazi sense of the word) was required from every member of the SS. This rune is widely used in various SS ceremonies, particularly weddings. Stylish and beautiful ring made of silver of 925-th sample and gold 585-th sample, the weight of the ring is about 10 gr. Size: diameter 19.5 mm (US-10). The ring is sold in a wooden gift box with engraved coat of arms of the 3rd Reich. The 6th SS Mountain Division "Nord" (6. SS-gebirgs-Division "Nord") was a German unit of the Waffen-SS of Nazi Germany during World war II, formed in February 1941 as SS Kampfgruppe Nord (SS Battle Group North). The division was the only Waffen-SS unit to fight in the Arctic Circle when it was stationed in Finland and northern Russia between June and November 1941. It fought in Karelia until the Moscow Armistice in September 1944, at which point it left Finland. It fought in the Operation Northwind in January 1945, where it suffered heavy losses. In early April 1945, the division was destroyed by the U.S. forces near Budingen, Germany. The division was formed from the units of the SS-concentration camp guards to guard the border with the Soviet Union following the 1940 German occupation of Norway.
