    Hello,

    In the attachment there's a few pictures of my ring.
    It's saying 900 silver.

    Someone got time to check if it's real? I hope so cus I bought it years ago.
    What do u think about the price of such a ring?

    Thank you

    Looks like a fake engraving (laser etched?) and obsoletely no wear.

    Certainly doesn't have that patina of 80 years and quite frankly could have been made anytime any where. Without provenance, these are more often than not, post war fakes. It's got to look like something an off duty DAK soldier wandering in a bazaar in a coastal Libyan town might have bought. Such a ring would be probably locally made and inscription scratched in by an arab merchant.

    It's a known pattern but I think it highly unlikely that such a crudely designed ring would be made of silver. Rather, these were made locally from cheap metal alloys by traders in a local market or bazaar.
    Have a look through the forum and you will find several posts of nice examples of genuine DAK rings. As noted by our friends above, this one is a dud, sorry.
