o.k., I'll try and get a few more shots of mine..

Members,,Please check out Odals Bismark ring with date.. This date is hand cut with a jewelers hand graver.

This is exactly what you want to look for when inspecting hand engraved rings/jewelry. You can see were the start or plunge of the tool starts, the slight twist of the tool makes the wider spots for effect. This too applies to Honor Rings,,on authentic pieces you will see this similar type of work.. Very nice..
