Guys, please,, Humor me on this..
Some of my research goes back in to the 80s, 70s, etc.. . No computers,,we exchanged letters on the overseas stuff. Sometimes phone calls.
OK, I'm looking for this ring.. Here is a photo of it in a collection........
- Owner long gone now and at the time 1978 or so I was thinking it bogus! Without proof of any kind I couldn't help the owner either way with a 'authentic' or 'fantasy'.
So here's the old photo from a now long gone collection,,, AND,, something that came in beginning of the Summer. I've had no luck actually finding a example of the ring. Any condition would be fine,,even a photo,,or another advert!!!..................

,,,Oh yeah,,,,,the advert.... I know I had a photo of the ring. Maybe from even a member here long ago.... But I've went thru so many hard drives and crazy times with them, flooding, fires, etc. So lets see what out there... Photos of the actual ring,,,or maybe one of you have it!!  , or even another advertisement......

Never seen that pattern before Gaspare, sorry. Is it even German?
My guess is that it’s some kind of memento mori ring. That’s what it looks like to me.

Hey G,
Interesting! Are those crosses on the sides of the band? I remember seeing it somewhere I will have a look in my references.
