    It's part of the game Tonys, sometimes you have unexpected good news sometimes you get a bad one...

      Here are two Lorioli skulls. I have had the good fortune to locate a small horde.
      They are extremely rare and harder to find than any of their German compatriots
      by a long run.

        Here is a comparrison between a Lorioli and a 1/52 Deschler

        Notice the Lorioli is slightly larger.

                          Neat Cap, I like the Brown leather inside. I really like the Skulls, I could spend hours looking at those under Magnification!!! The larger ones look to be of a higher grade medal, almost silver.

                            IMO

                            On this thread I learned about the issues with rounded fletching on the Italian SS sleeve eagles...reportedly an indicator that these are copies...
                            Is this such a copy?

                            Its being offered with the following statement:
                            Nice quality Vet purchased eagle is in white thread on a red wool. Correct backing and right as rain,

                                Nick,
                                It is my belief that mine are of Italian manufacture and the one you posted is of German manufacture. Mine were found with Italian made Lorioli metal skulls and other Italian made insignia so that is how I drew the conclusion. This is why there is not only a difference in style, but also construction.
