SA-SS flagpole top

[oldflagswanted]

threaded "mounting stud" ???

The attachment at the bottom is flexible and no screw.

... tapered conical ends on the mounting stud. ...

Again see post #8, in other words the
the shown threaded "mounting stud" is
not actually a part to the top in question.

New, better pictures in daylight:

And I was wrong: It is a screw, and it is made out of a metal, which I can bend a bit, so a "soft" metal. So not really flexible, but bedable (a bit)

Thanks for the additional info
and photos. Screw of a "soft"
metal is not a good sign - have
a repro DAF cog top like that.
Likewise, small pin holes in the
eagle surface is a anti-originality
concern too.

Seeing such makes a "fake" top
call much more easy to conclude.
