Norge ring 1940 - detailed identification please

[preclik]

Hi, I had my life's success this weekend. I found this ring. Can I ask you for help with detailed identification? The year 1940 was mostly mentioned on the front. However, this ring has II (Maybe D) and the number 33. Inside is a Stavanger 1940 engraved and a hallmark 830S and VT.

+1. Agree with Evgeniy.

Gentlemen, please explain to me exactly why this ring is a fake?

[Antonio Scapini]

I would like to know the answer me too Gary.

I got several years ago the Army ring posted in the other thread.
And so far, in decades of collecting, is the only one I saw.
A 3 pieces made ring. Quite a complex work to be faked for 2-300 euro in one copy only.
Anyway, everything is possible.

Its original but not SS

By no means identical... however certain similarities.

It would appear that where yours has II and 33 .... normally on other examples you would see a date. Eg 19 44.

It has nothing to do with SS anyway, the eagle is Luftwaffe, and the inscription "Stavanger 1940" is a town in Norway that absolutely had an LW airfield and LW base from 40-45... So that is correct. But for 830S, that would be a good marking for silverware as in a fork and spoon, but 925S would be good for a ring made by a silversmith, this just doesn't look like something made in Norway in 1940, the rings I have seen that comes from here from that time looks better made, and all of them have much more wear from use.
Where did you find it? As for the "D 33" I am sure Simon O can full you in if it is a squadron or something that was in Stavanger in 1940...

Is anybody can show to me the same type of NORGE ring ???))))

[Antonio Scapini]

I have to say these are not for sure the best arguments I've read.
Silver markings, wearing, show me a Norge ring... All them are questionable. Silver marks on rings can go from .800, o .830, to .900... Everything written on period sources.

If I post a period ring you have never seen, or made with processes you are not aware of, Zig, than it means it is a fake one?

Too I dont like engraving from this shot. IMO this is nor engraving or just bad shot
Let show to us more quality shot of engraving and stamp

S830 is ok for a ring, if you want something to last, and it dont get scratched easily.
Another thing that match is that in april 1940, II/33, or stab II-Flagregiment 33 from Luftwaffe was employed in Stavanger, responsible for the antiaircraftguns in the city.
