    No need to send the ring anywhere, it is an original. The document does not appear to be named and the HH signature seems poorly printed. I can not offer an opinion on it's originality. It is a fact that the document often did not match the ring date and cases of a 3 to 4 month date gap are known. Your's would imply more like a 9 month gap, but again the document does not seem correct without the bearers name.
    There is not compiled list of awardees by year, much less by date. As you know these were awarded (or dated) with 4 different dates per year. The best that you can do is try and determine the name under the scratches. This seems to be a short name and it looks possible to me to read it.

    Very nice ring!

      Hi Mark!

      Could you please could post a close-up of the back runes in the circle on the ring, and some close-ups of the Heinrich tinnies?
      Thanks! Chris

        I have doubts myself on the ring award document but I am far from an expert when it comes to paper….

        As for the tinnies, one is actually more a silver plaque with no pin.

              And the 'two remaining monograms' are, in fact, the abbreviation of 'S.lb.' (to my dear.....) so are not the man's name.

                  The silver-colored plate seems to be a cast copy from the tinnie beside it: it lacks the detil of the tinnie and seems slightly smaller in size.

                    Hi Denis, The “silver” plaque is the same size; it looks smaller because the tinnie is not flat (pin in back) You are right about the details.

                      Hello,

                      The later ring documents were certainly stamped, not signed by Himmler.
                      Don Boyle will tell you this. I have no clue if yours is original though.
                      Don could tell you.
                      Best, Chris

                        If you want to be sure,than send the ring to Don Boyle, he is the man.

                        It cost you some money, but when he said it is ok, than it is ok.

                        Regards,
