I'd prefer the cross instead of the ring
Now that really would be something worth having. Would there be any way of distinguishing it as hitlers or is it purely based on a trail of provenance?
Hahahhaaaaa i think they are getting uncle Adolf mixed up with Liberace!....
From what i have read the cross was put in a museum in Hitlers home town during the war.
The Norwegian collector bought it from said museum...git

Sometimes single items of provenance seen for the first time is hard to prove. This ring would be a good addition to the "Fact or Fiction" thread. It is possible that this ring and other junk type gifts to the fuhrer... Was just tossed in Hitlers junk drawer. I like the thick gold chain idea the best and putting the ring on it.
The way Hitler dressed was very modest with no homeboy skull rings and wristwatches the size of a TV set. Sepp Dietrich was reprimanded for wearing his custom made sword. Even that sword showed some amount of vanity.

Wow, I'd call that pretty good provenance! It would certainly be a fantastic thing to have and with that kind of provenance a very good investment you'd think. I imagine that bloke could pretty much ask whatever he wanted for that particular cross and would almost be guaranteed of a buyer.From what i have read the cross was put in a museum in Hitlers home town during the war.

I agree, such ostentatious bling would seem to be out of character unless the modest dress was part of his —humble man of the people—public PR image only? Stalin cultivated a similar outward visual impression of the simple man, as did Mao Zedong.
