I think you are right, it is a bit fuzzy. 
And it *could* be a serpent on a shield. 

I have enlarged the ring to 300 dpi and taken a screenshot - 

it's in the same folder in the files section

HBP Ring, full-screen.jpg

its quite fuzzy on the top right there, but you know, it could well be
a serpent. I was somewhat thinking this ring had something to do with
Lily, but the issue of the Black Shield or Crest on a ring Sirius
wrenched from Kreacher is probably a good canon for the ring's
heritage.
