It seems this ring, too, was intended to protect its wearer from evil and misfortune.

A prototype of this ring was discovered in Augsburg (Ernst Reiter Platz, Bavaria). It is one of the oldest rings of its kind, and its engraving is executed in a unique Gothic script, commonly found on medieval talismans and amulets. The ring bears only two names.
