This ring was buried with Lee Harvey Oswald on November 25, 1963. In October 1981, his wife, Marina had his body exhumed to verify his remains. She asked Mortician Paul Groody (who buried Lee Oswald in 1963) for his wedding ring band to be returned to her. Paul took both rings from his corpse and presented to Marina. She stated, “I don’t want that ring (Calligraphy “L”), he bought that in the Soviet Union before he met me.” Paul was going to return the ring to the corpse but Lee’s casket was so dilapidated, a new casket was ordered and his remains were interred and sealed before Paul could place the ring back on his hand. Paul held onto this ring until 2005 and gave it to researcher Marshal Evans. Marshal sold this ring to Gary Fannin in 2020.
