Looks like the Iron Cross. Try Googling that.
There was someone here that had alot of knowledge about an ss ring.
It looks right. The ring at top could be added?
Can you post a picture of the back? Are there any numerals or marks on the top loop where the ring goes through. Also see if a magnet sticks to the middle where the swastika is.
One I seen many moons ago, if I remember correctly was sterling silver with black enamel ....
There were alot of different manufacturers that used 800 silver and some had iron cores while others used brass and other metals. Some have makers marks, some don’t. Also a ton of fakes were produced as these were popular to make post-war and sell to tourists and vets in the 50’s-60’s as “war trophy souvenirs”
Can't tell if the middle is magnetic. Only magnet I have is big and is sticking to something. Bout to post a pic of the back.
If it means anything, the black internal part does move around s little inside the outer part.
That’s a good sign as they were two separate pieces. Also the paint appears to be slightly bubbling on the swastika which is consistent with an iron core. DO NOT TRY TO CLEAN IT!
Do you know if your Grandfather served in the military during WW2?
