A-SS EM Visor - Original?

[RobertE]

This cap looks like an original to me. From these limited pictures, can anyone help with determining if it's an original?

I appreciate the help.

I would need a look under the hood,skull may be 3 pronged just a guess.

[RobertE]

It looks like a three prong to me (from the front), but I can't get any under the sweatband shots, I'm afraid.

The combination of the late zinc 3-pin Assmann eagle and 3 prong Assmann-style skull screams 'Alteste'. They certainly have no place on an Allgemeine-SS visor.

The condition of the strap is inconsistant with the rest of the cap and the materials are strane (at least to me).

From these pics the cap itself is not looking good.

The skull is also quite a bit off-center, which at the very least, tells me it wasn't placed there by a craftsman.

[RobertE]

That's about what I thought, but I must say these Alteste are some well-built hats!

Thanks for taking the time to comment - looks like I'll stay away from this one.
