Yes after just about 50 years of collecting I have to move some pieces out.. What is the family going to do with 300+ rings when I'm not here!! - Seems though suddenly my son [in his 40s] and my son in laws now seem to want to pick out a skull or 2 ring to have/wear... Np problem So like the other topic I will continue... I want to first offer me rings at the MAX.. Then maybe to one of the auctions... Then just pimp them out all over / around  So far I'm showing my boxed rings. , and will continue to do so.. and get some other unboxed rings too! - * Hey guys. I know Summer is slow.. But Please, feel free to put on a ring, OR, better yet show a ring and start your own topic.. Maybe a ring you posted a long time ago that is no longer here. Come on,,put it back on. Different angles, show the inners, the seams etc. This IS your forum too! Benten, Ado, Evgeniy etc. etc. you guys have marvelous collections so come on,,take 15 min and put a ring on. Maybe you need info on it,,or just proud of it and want to show it.. So here are 2 more of mine I'll be moving. Boxed. I believe they are their original boxes. When I get a ring other than a quick wipe off or brush off I keep them as they came. So these rings have been in these boxes for many years.. For you Norwegian collectors,,,a costal artillery ring.. I have seen a hand drawn award document but couldn't get a photo of the document. [ dam! should have bought it! ] The ring in silver,, great detail,, no hallmarks, good condition, thin nice tapering band , nicely finished inner band..

Could it be the same as this shoulder board: Imperial German 469th Infantry Regiment M-15 Shoulder Strap, white piped field grey shoulder strap with red chain stitched 469 to the center.

Don’t have ring in hand yet, i just got it to be shipped. There was no photos of inside the ring just front and sides. It was good enough for me to go for it as like you said the details on this ring are pretty nicely done.
