Good evening Gaspare.
Personally, I think the ring was thrown away before it was captured. As many other SS officers have done. Not all soldiers and officers ended up in American captivity. Many were unlucky and ended up in Russian captivity. Finding out where he was at the end of the war will probably be more difficult. In May, many SS units were located in the Protectorate and retreated under the command of SS Gruppenführer Carl Friedrich von Pückler-Burghauss to the US zone.
Here is a document in which the status of SS units in the protectorate months before the end of the war. The document comes from the archive.
