    Nice 499/41 Cupal Deaths Head

    Just picked this up and thought I would share it with you all.

    Nicely marked RZM 499/41 cupal deaths head with crimped prongs. Unfortunately I can't get a picture of the back as I won't risk removing it from the wallet.

    I also like the Combat Engineers pick and shovel device (was this a collar tab device or a speciality badge device?)

    The owner must have been from the Dresden based unit (?).

    Regards,

    Chuck

        Generally these items were souvenirs put together by GIs during or after the war.
