Black Panzer M43 Eagle and Skull - original?

[RobertE]

An M43 is being offered to me, and if the insignias bad the hat doesn't stand much of a chance. The insignia looks pretty tricky - are these known bad type? Any help is appreciated, in advance - s/f Robert

Fake insignia with artificial ageing.....sorry

[TonyS]

Yeah, both definitely bad - you will probably find both of these in the fakes thread pinned at the top of the forum.

Thanks fellows, I appreciate the fast response. s/f Robert

Was this the m43 that was on ebay last night???

[RobertE]

I believe so; he was selling a helmet and said he had this hat - vet acquired, no less.
