This is Lapua movement ring. Lapua movement was political (anti-communist) movement in Finland. It started in 1929 and was initially dominated by ardent anti-communist nationalists, emphasizing the legacy of the nationalist activism, the White Guards and the Civil War in Finland. It radicalized and was banned in 1932.

More information about Lapua movement can be found from Wikipedia.

Nice finds!
That ring sure is cool, especially knowing the history behind it.
Good luck out there!

Great find! And some interesting history too. It is wonderful to find items that are not only rare, but which can also be dated to a narrow range in history.

Cheers,

Thanks everyone!

Unfortunately this ring is damaged. Originally it should be like left one.

So in my ring “chain” around the Lapua Movement seal is missing :-[.
Undamaged ring would be worth ~200€ (260$)
