        In my opinion, the markets are flooded with reproduction pieces. There will always be doubt if this is a real one. If you indeed got this first hand from the veteran, then you know it's authenticity. For me, a nice piece but one that will always keep my suspicions up as a possible copy/cast reproduction.

        Regards,

          ha ha, I say the same thing about badges and medals!

          This is a well known wartime semi official pattern ring.
          Many with direct German vet provenance along with entry in Soldbuch and award documents.
          ,,,while a often copied pattern this one has the proper looking stamped in hallmark and good looking natural wear to it. My vote a good one..

                    Interesting, there is always something to know and learn. I was unaware that an unofficial award (the GJ ring) was ever commented about in a Soldbuch or other type of documentation.
                    I attempted to do a search of the forums and was unable to see an example, If anyone has a link that shows this case in point, I would appreciate a link to the said topic.
                    Best regards,
                    JustinG

                          I have 2 examples of them in soldbuchs but do not have permision to use here.
                          I also own and have seen more listed on 'Death Cards',,, and of course the award docs shown here... They are nice Semi Official ring pattern of the 3rd reich...
