    Skull ! Brunswick gold visor cap skull with red eyes ! Who wore such skulls ?

    Which Brunswick military unit wore such a kind of visor cap skull ? I think the skull is late war made, zinc, not silvered but gold (!) and red eyes.... Thanks for informations!

      I've seen a couple of SS caps with red material behind the eyes of the skull. I guess these young guys did it to look cool!

          Thanks for the comments ! The ordinary Brunswick skulls were silvered. The question is, why is my skull a gold skull....?

            I have seen both Prussian and Brunswick TKs that were definitely gilded.

            They always seem to be on caps dating from the pre-1914 era.

              I'm not sure pre 1914. I thought the skull is ww2 because the material looks like zinc or Kriegsmetall ....but they used Kriegsmetall in ww1 too.....
