Re: Deaths head ring fragment and half of "field made" SS rune
The rune is exactly 2,5 cm:s in length (the prongs NOT included). Doesnt look like a standard piece. The backpart is govered with thin coat of some brownish residue.

Found a propable match, it seems Latvian SS volonteers made their metal SS runes locally. Mystery solved or... Sure would fit for the area this one was found.

Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

Some of the eastern volunteers made them at trench lines. Most widely seen on the Latvian wolunteer tunics. I have also 15 Div d SS, handmade swastika
