The family member had posted it online, looking for value and where/how it should be sold. He ended up sending the ring and box to Don for an authentication. Things fell apart with Don, so the guy demanded that Don return the objects, which he sent to me, and which I purchased. Don told him the box was a "poor quality reproduction from the 1940s" but offered to take it off his hands. I'm glad Don did that, because the kid got really pissed off, asked for it back, and sent it to me. I was very glad to buy the set, as the box is 100% original in my view. I frankly didn't know the ring topic had been pulled, but no matter. Here are the photos.
Quite an interesting turn of events. Don evidently had concerns. I see JR has posted pics of the FRANK ring and makes a comparison of the letter styles. Was the FRANK ring ever confirmed as legitimate? Quite ironic that this new ring acquisition soem similiar traits to a ring that had concerns.
Coincidence that Craig had both? Just thinking outloud and curious.
