    Hitler plaque opinion

    Need an option on 2 items that came with a nice grouping I purchase from a collector getting out of collecting.
    I actually am not holding out much hope for either piece , I haven't found either piece through searches but some close ones.
    First off the Hitler round plaque, 12 ¾ inches across made of aluminum well marked photo show details well.
    There is one other posted but does not have maker information on back or material it was made from.


    Any hope on this piece , the aluminum raised my suspicion as most smaller pieces I have had or have are cast iron or bronze material. I'm not crazy about the suspension hanger either.


    Number 2 , the Eagle and swastika not sure what branch we are trying for here , made of cast iron , no suspension device , poor detail. This one I have little to no hope for.


    If repo's any idea what time period these were made?
    Thank you
    Tom

        Hello,
        No expert here but I do like the Hitler plaque and think that the suspension hanger is period. I have a different plaque with the same type of suspension on it also. The eagle I think is a repro. Originals if I am not mistaken have an attachment for a leg or stand on them. Do wait for other more knowledgeable members to comment also.

          The disk is right best I can tell, hanger looks o.k as well. Pretty nice.

          The bird is generally not accepted in that form, however there are original examples of heavy cast and solid that were used for alternative purpose and they are not always the cleanest cast. This one I am not warming up to.

          Best,

          Kris
