Based on those pics second pattern skulls looks orginal (some of them looks like dugs)
I'm afraid about orginality first pattern skulls.
Anyway thanks for posting those nice skulls(second pattern)

All of the 2nd pattern skulls here are authentic. The Deschler in the lower right corner of the photos is an outstanding piece. I can't comment on the rest.

Thanks for the comments guys. Which first pattern skulls need close up photos? I could post them? What about the shields?
Thank you Chris and Funia.

This ,,gold" one.
Rest of skulls based on those pics IMO is not orginal.

Thanks, Peter.

Please kindly elaborate why those 1st patterns except the gold one is not original. Would love to learn from your expertise and also listen to other members. Issues with pin, or teeth, or, etc.? Thanks again.

Thanks,
Mil

The 1st pattern are all berlin hoard type and there are many threads about these. The gold one would be good to see closeups.

Hi Vince, Peter:

I have heard of the Berlin Hoard but did not follow that thread. Do you have the link??? Was it conclusive that the Berlin Hoard were all fakes??
I can't find the thread / link.

Also, not all in the first pattern ones are the same, for example the third one I believe is a panzer type skull? Certainly welcome to listen to feedback. Thanks.

The berlin hoard was found in 2005 under a house.It would be best to google it. Some people like these and some don't, even those who like them say they are the cheapest skulls to buy. There was supposed to be a story in the news back then about them but I never found anything to prove that. The one you say is panzer type is also a berlin find. Some dealers try and get 300$ for these but thats way to high, I'd say they're in the 20 to 50 range. Hope this helps you. Vince
