Re: Unknown SS ring found in Hungary
Sorry...hokey totally modern piece of rubbish designed and manufactured with the Sole purpose of duping naive and uninformed people interested in such things out of their money. The insignias are wrong configuration...it has an absurdly wrong RZM inside-which no ring ever did, the ring itself has very little actual wear and what Is there appears artificial in appearance-which it, no doubt, is. I would be curious to see the silver content tested on it, as I rather doubt that it is even made of the .835 purity silver for which it is stamped. If you can, at all, get a refund from the seller of this ring, absolutely do so and tell the seller if he actually Believes that this is a 70 year old ring of the wartime era, then he should be in a different business, as he obviously can't tell something that was made yesterday from an item that is 7 decades old.

Re: Unknown SS ring found in Hungary
Thanks all for your interest and assessments - I greatly appreciate them. I received this as a gift and will keep the secret of its authenticity (or lack thereof) to myself so as not to diminish the gesture.

I hope this doesn't appear in the classifieds anytime soon.
Re: Unknown SS ring found in Hungary
It won't.
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....

It's apparently got a walk on part in the new biopic 'Liberace' film starring Michael Douglas though.
