This forum automatically blocks any reference to that web site for some paranoid delusional reason. Some strange politics I beleieve..........................M-I-L-I-T-A-R-I-A /C-O-L-L-E-C-T-I-N-G /F-O-R-U-M ....The skull and eagle you posted appear to be modern copies of what would be hand-embroidered skull and eagle for headgear.
Occasional a cut down TK from a collar tab was used on headgear. I have never seen an original skull embroidered for headgear which I felt was authentic. I have seen one embroidered cap eagle that was original in my opinion though.
These two pieces are bad in my opinion.

I fully concur with Reichsheini on these... phoney as a four-dollar bill. I have an SS officer overseas cap with white piping, aluminum flat wire eagle, silver bullion skull, which is a cut out Totenkopf collar tab, and named to a man in the SS Race & Resettlement Department (RuSHA). This skull is NO WHERE NEAR a hand-embroidered silver bullion skull collar tab.
