A very well know original wartime pattern! They can sometimes be hard to find in good condition.. Yours is very nice..
Can you see a rivet inside the band behind the skull?

GREAT ring.
First of this pattern I've seen.
I like the full back and heavy band.
Congrats and thanks for posting it.

Thanks for elaborating, that is very elegantly done!

I'm still partial to the first shot, not only because of the items showcased, but also because the sepia tint and the edge blur both add a nice touch.

Thanks, honestly rings are not strong part of my collection. This TK was an "accitent" but I find it really nice therefore I decided to keep it and share with it...

Mike,,there are 100s of different patterns. Each branch of service has their own designs. Heer and KM the least. Luft and SS lead the pack. There are also the para military organizational rings and others like the seemingly endless amount of patterns for the WestWall / Front and Totenkopf rings!
This ad is a drop in the bucket,,there are literally 100's of different German 3rd Reich era rings that were made...
