QuestionI have this old ring. It's from world war 2. It says Blue Devils Division and has a devil inside of the blue insignia. Is there any info I can get on this? Like maybe how much it's worth or anything really.
AnswerVinny,
I am a jeweler and not a military historian. Yet, there is lots of stuff on the Internet about the Blue Devils, the 88th division used in some of the hardest fighting in Italy
Go to these websites and take a look.

Some symbols are there.
Vinny, without the ring to see what it is made of (gold?) there is not a way I can provide any value at all. The place to take it is a jeweler who buys gold. This will let you know what you have and the price they offer. Keep in mind, gold buyers give very low prices since all items are priced as scrap to be sent to a refiner. Don't sell it yet!
What is it actually worth depends on who might want to buy it. A collector of historic items might buy it and not for scrap. Perhaps on one of the websites about the 88th division may have "contact" links. If so, I would ask them. That is certainly your best direction to go.
Best wishes with this unusual ring. God Bless and Peace. Thomas.
