"Groundfind" TK on e-stand

[bwanek1]

Looks pretty obviously like a cast fake (with the wrong style pin) which has been given an acid bath to me. Am I missing something?!

I dont think you are missing something! Its a cast fake IMHO as well! Its a common trick to age and to simulate a ground dug character to hide its a fake!

I agree. The pins look wrong to start with...

Kind regards

I also agree. The pin is not correct and the skull doesn't look like the groundfinds I've seen.

I am afraid I must disagree with you, Anders. That one may have pins which more closely resemble the originals, but I see a lot which I don't like about that one also. I would also call that one a fake.

Hello,
I used to collect these things years ago and I agree w/Brad I really don't care for either skull.

This skull is a reproduction in my opinion.
