Hello all

What 's your opinion on this one ? Never saw it before.

I'm not sure, but I believe this might be a rare cupal/tombak Assmann skull.
Let's see what other more knowledgeable members say.

[Ian Hulley]

The sutchre (sp?) lines appear too thick for me.

Looks a bit strange...does it have Ges Gesch on the back?

[bwanek1]

It is a fake.

I cannot see it in the photo, but I bet "RZM 41" is faintly visible if you look closely in person.

[Hardigan]

It's not mine (yet) , I don't know if it has Ges.Gesch. , I have asked the seller better pictures

[TonyS]

I agree with Brad and Ian - it's a fake.

Makes you wonder how long that's been immersed in Latvian battery acid to get that finish.

[Hardigan]

Ok , 100% fakes , thanks guys .

That's what we're all here for Anders.

It's alledgedly a Latvian fake probably based on the Assmann skull,as I said earlier the sutchre lines are like a series of circles rather than the thin line of tiny grooves on an original. As Brad correctly say's they are usually marked 'RZM 41'.
