set of SS hat eagle and skull.... opinions please

[Ken S]

I couldn't find either of these in the fake gallery. I feel good about the skull, have no idea about the eagle. I would appreciate a thumbs up/down opinion on both items. Thanks. PLEASE NOTE: The gold colored tint in some of the photos is due to bad lighting and my poor photography skills!

I don't know of any original SS cap eagle in GOLD. Based on that alone I would say REPRODUCTION. I've seen these offered as SS-GENERALS, which of course it total BS.

Sorry... apparently the pix in gold are bad lighting...

Again, let me say the gold tint is bad lighting.

I have to say I think both are reproductions....
The pins and attachment of the pins on the skull are not correct for a Deschler piece. These usually have brass pins with disc attachments. In addition you notice that the eagle has the same types of pins and attachments but is marked with a Zimmerman code. I would like to see a better view of the pins and attachments on this eagle.

Well, I think the skull is an original!

I dont know about the eagle. It looks ok, but Its out of my knowledge for now.

Cheers,

The eagle is original, but the skull is a reproduction.

Best, Chris

Chris, you sure that the skull is bad? It looks ok to me even though it hasn't got the disks. I think I saw an identical M1/52 posted here a while ago and the verdict was positive.
