SS Cap Eagle: Value?

[jmaurer]

At other's suggestions, I've posted this here also:

The son of one of my coworkers was given this (along with a Mussolini tinnie and two possible WWII U.S. insignia, posted elsewhere) by a veteran. Any ideas as to how valuable it may be? Thanks!

Aran:
Thanks for the response. Some of the details between my friend's badge and the one you posted seem to be different (markings, head, round raised area at the base of the attachments). What should the proper details of an original look like? Are the photos you posted of a good, proper one? Again, thank you!

Hello there,

Post it in the Tony Barto SS section of the forum and not here, you'll get more responses.

Aran is of course wrong. His eagle is a bad fantasy-object like he said, but the eagle posted now is an original Agustin Hicke's eagle maker marked
