    Heart with a dagger through it meant courage I believe,so maybe its a ww2 era ring. Looks to me like someone whipped it up in a machine shop.

    Thanks - I thought it might have something to do with nuts (nut and bolt) as it has that shape but it looks like it is on piece or maybe to do with the sacred heart...it sure is a puzzle.

    Classic WWII era "trench art" from the look of it. The heart with a dagger is classic tattoo art from the era. Total Sailor Jerry stuff. Combine that with a hex nut and ...?

    That makes sense as I had a great uncle who fought in WW2.
