Description
SS Honor Ring to SS-Sturmbannführer August Kropp. Kropp served with SS-Hauptamt and was promoted an SS-Sturmbannführer d.R. on 20.4.41. Kropp's NSDAP membership number was 6923028. His SS number was 277287. A comprehensive documentation grouping (photocopies of the original documents) will be shipped with this ring providing a lot of room to research his career. In addition, the ring comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from Don Boyle, a well known specialist in the collectors world and known as "the" specialist for SS Honor Rings (COA from 4.2.2016).
 
Engraved "S.lb. Krop 20.4.40 H.Himmler".
 
Typical 1940s style of band and runes. A textbook example which was published in Martin Toman's "SS-Totenkopfring - Himmleruv prsten cti", p. 508-509.
  
Very nice detail however, clearly worn. Scratches next to the skull.
Diameter: 19mm.
