GO with my gut feeling on this SS item?

Hi i have a chance at this ring but i have never seen one in person before. My gut feeling says there is a 95% chance its fake, and maybe only 5% chance is real, i have herd the ring is often reporduced. is this just a present day repro? thanks for any help, john.

Hi John, it is fantasy junk.

Once again we see the SS runes in a diamond proof mark. If you ever see this on any item, walk away, as it is only found on fakes. It was invented in England in the 1970's.

Cheers, Ade.

btw rings never went tru drgm rzm or ges geschutz stations
so having a drgm rzm or ges geschutz in a ring is also a bad sign

thanks everyone, i figured the same just wanted to be sure, for i have never seen a ring except for pictures, and this one looks completely different all together. beter safe than sorry. thanks again john.

Yes It's crap.
The skull has the typical shape of the fake Totenkopf-needle like shown below

There are many, many fakes out there right now that have that copper color to them. They must have a high copper content because it's fairly easy to heat, pour, and forge.
