Hello,

Dear colleagues, I would like to ask how much can cost original Latvian SS volunteer ring in good condition?

Thanks ZiG.

Ring

Be very careful with ALL SS legion or Divisional rings. The enamel work seems very nice and much better than the silver part, but I don't know if it's real or not. IMO, the vast majority of SS division or legion rings are fake.

[SSausas]

Well colleagues, I would like to hear your opinion on this ring? There are no any markings on it. Thanks in advance.

Ring

It would be nice to see closeups of the LAST ring. From the photos alone, the first ring appears to be a copy of the second one. The silver work on the oak leaf area on the first ring is rather poor. If either of these rings is authentic, it would more likely be the second one, IMHO. NOTE: The last ring posted looks authentic also, because of the band being thin and broken. You must ask yourself, if the band is this badly worn, does the wear on the front enamel area match the wear of the broken band?

Price depends on too may things to quote anymore..

As far as the ring itself,,IF the front is a nice glassy enamel and the inner and outer band match this one your safe:

If Steve T wouldn't mind, I put both of the rings for comparison in one picture. Perhaps it will help to determine the authenticity of the ring?

[SSausas]

So, dear colleagues, what could be your conclusion on this ring? I understand that from the photos is very difficult to decide, but if I can believe that this ring is an original? Many thanks for your opinion.

The ring in post #1 is not the ring in post#5 [good eyes sgstandard![ so be careful someone isn't playing ganes with you..

- every time I click on to the photos I get a pop up for live sex shows. Not that I mind [when the mood is right and the wife is around] but these type ads usually include some sort of computer virus.... No thanks.

If they are telling you the 2 rings are the same leave then be and hold on to your money.. IF your asking if the pattern is authentic for the period, yes it is.................

[SSausas]

Yes, Gaspare, there are different rings and I am asking only about the second one (which is on the 5th note). The first was just an example, so please don't pay any attention on it.

[SSausas]

Here are the newly added photos and sorry for the previous link, where photos were placed.

[Gaspare]

Looks pretty good from the photos so far. Please email me thru WAF and send me a photo of the other side of band to be sure.....

[SSausas]

Maybe there are more thoughts about this ring?

Ring

The last ring posted seems to be silver-plated brass, if you look at the band edges.
