SS-Ehrenring

The SS-Ehrenring ('SS Honour Ring'), unofficially called Totenkopfring (i.e., "Skull Ring", literally 'Death's Head Ring'), was an award of Heinrich Himmler's Schutzstaffel (SS). It was not a state decoration, but rather a personal gift bestowed by Himmler. It became a highly sought-after award, one which could not be bought or sold. The SS Honour Sword and SS Honour Dagger were similar awards.
