1. A combination of a one-piece screw closure and a security ring for dosing an opening of a container, the screw closure being connected to the security ring by way of breakable bridging elements and the screw closure being one piece with an internal thread for screwing onto an external thread on the opening of the container, the security ring having latching means which are intended to engage behind a bead on the opening of the container and break when the screw closure is unscrewed for the first time and becomes separated from the security ring, and including a security seal which extends outwardly of and between the screw closure and the security ring and which becomes damaged when the screw closure and security ring are separated, the security seal having an approximately rectangular basic form with two longer edges and two shorter edges, the longer edges extending parallel to the lower edge of the security ring and not extending beyond a lower edge of the security ring, the security seal being formed of material having structures including at least one of depressions and raised portions, and including an ink in register with the structures, said ink having a color which differs from a color of the screw closure and the security ring so that a visual impression of the structures is enhanced.
