brought a large group of WW2 medals and paperwork etc from a family last year this ring was included along with a story how it had been swaped for a pack of smokes with a POW in 1945 it is a nice heavy ring showing wear no makers marks it does not match in with my collection so am open to offers if anyone is interested just would like to sell it on if possible
anyone with any info on this type of thing i would be happy to take advice 
Hi Warren, does it turn your finger green if you wear it for a day ? If so then it`s probably dodgy.
Epic has a ring with similar markings on their website, albeit with a deaths head instead of a swastika. http://www.epicmilitaria.com/product.php/851/ss-totenkopf-ring
If you want a definative answer you could pop a pic up on the War Relics forum, there are a few posts on there about rings. http://warrelics.eu/forum/search.php?searchid=700916
Hello thought I would give the finger test a try 15hours wear and no green finger and finger is still attached to hand so far so good still unable to find anything matching on the web
Im not expecting to retire on the sale of this but Im sure its worth an offer from someone
I'd agree with Slick, looks repro. poor casting with airbubbles evident in the eagle and swastika. what is the metal? I'd guess not pure gold or silver due to the green oxidisation on the surface.
Also for me, vague back stories about how items were aquired which cannot be proven always rings alarm bells.
“I wanted to come to the Volga at a specific location at a specific city. By chance it carries the name of Stalin himself. So don’t think I marched there for this reason – it could carry another name – but because there is a very important goal... this goal I wanted to take – and you know – we are very modest, we have it already."
Adolf Hitler, November 1942
"Comrades, Red Army men, commanders and political workers, men and women guerrillas! It is on your perseverance, staunchness, fighting skill and readiness to discharge your duty to the country that the defeat of the German-fascist army and the liberation of the Soviet land from the Hitlerite invaders depend! We can and must clear the Soviet land of Hitlerite vermin."

I have a mate going to test later to see if silver the green is camera flash effects
