He claims he inherited the ring from a relative.
Inside the ring its ingraved "Geldern 21.12.44 H.Himmler" and 3 marks/symbols he can't read. If it's because its worn inside or that he just needs glasses i don't know.
First post, sorry for poor english, it's not my native language!

Hi 0bbA,
Sorry but from the poor images supplied I can tell you that the ring is a fake one. The engraving is wrong, as is the shape/style of the skull.

The ring is a bad fake. The guy selling it to you is a liar... here is a pic of another fake ring online with the same name.

My neighbour in work dug nazi ring. I don't know what exactly type is. On sides have luftwaffe eagle (http://goo.gl/lJeJb) and on top have skull. Not right-handed like totenkopf but from the front. Inner side have "K" letter and head of bird. I'm pretty sure is original, but I don't know to whom it belonged. Can you help me with indentify? If it original, how much is worth?
P.S. Sorry for images quality and my english.

It's just a fantasy ring and is worthless to a militaria collector, sorry.
Regards, Ned.

So the neighbor lied to me? This is strange, especially since he found this during the excavation. There was more stuff like launchers, bayonets etc. I checked, and indeed in Boleslawiec German troops were stationed.
