WWII Era 1914 & 1939 Intaglio Ring

$1,400

Sold!

Lindsay's almost positive this hand is holding an en bloc clip, which are the bullet clips used in the kind of rifles employed in both WW1 and WW2. The dates - 1914 and 1939 - are the years that each of the wars began. The MR could be a military regiment, or maybe someone's initials? And the hallmarks are Dutch. There's a story here for sure, but we only know part of it.
