Re: SS Honor Ring, opinions please
I have a feeling I know the answer to this one and it isn't favourable but wait for a few more members to give their opinions.
You will need to get some better, closer, clearer images too.

Don't bother.by Adrian
Only two rings dated '12' for the month December were ever produced the so called "Christmas Ring" dated 24.12.33, a personal bestowal by Himmler, and only ever made for the year 1933, the first year of ring production, and never later.
The other was the "Winter Solstice" ring dated from 21.12.38 onwards until the end of ring production in 1944. It looks as though Himmler deliberately changed the date from a Christian celebration to a Pagan one, as per National Socialist doctrine in suppressing organised religion.
Also, the first year the "Winter Solstice" ring appeared was 1938. The one you have shown meets neither criteria of these facts as it is dated 1934, never mind the bad engraving etc., etc. and is therefore bogus. QED.

Dear Friends, thank you very much for all. Ned, I think your explanation is definitive.

The request for additional photos was purely for reference, I had a feeling you might appear with a lawyers response Ned!
