[QUOTE="daveydempsey, post: 11401829, member: 22"]I think if these had been worn by occupying Germans they would have had Swastikas or SS symbols on them or even Skull & Crossbones. Obviously these symbols are not allowed on eBay so become very difficult to sell, so an alternative has been produced. I think these items are relatively new and not from WWII otherwise we would have been seeing them years ago. Note Charlies ring has been cut on the shank. I remember before Russia was banned from eBay there were several scam eBayers selling so called German tank commanders rings dug from the battle fields of Leningrad, Stalingrad and the Caucasus oilfields, supposedly taken from the skeletal remains in destroyed Panzer tanks. They had large Skulls on the ring. There were more identical rings for sale than there were tanks destroyed.[/QUOTE]
