    ss skull fur kragenspiegel?

    Hello

    Sorry but my english is not best

    I bought this skull (fur ein kragenspiegel) last week as original but I wanted him here to test for authenticity

    The only question is this skull original?

    I thank you for your opinion

    Greetings from the Netherlands

    This is a 1st pattern CAP skull and not a collar tab skull ..... the SS never (officially) wore metal skulls there.

    It appears to be original and from the recent 'Berlin Haul' but Robin will be able to tell definitively.

        Hi

        It certainly does not look like one from the 'Berlin Skull Haul'

        I am not sure if it is my internet connection, but it takes an age to load an image (I managed half a skull) so I just gave up. Sorry about that, but I did try

          This type of skull was worn on the collar (beside the litzen) by Kav. Rgt. 5
          during the early 1930s.

          It also appears on panzer collar patches in some period pix.

          It's the same size as a standard panzer collar skull.

          Not for the cap.

          Not SS.

          Not Berlin find.

              I thank you for your opinions

              Thanks very much for the information about this skull
              So if I understand correctly, this skull is original 1930?
              not from the ss that is clear for me now

              Here some more pictures of the skull

                Hello Robin,
                May I ask to see the eagle. Is that an early soft cap eagle?

                Regards, Peter

                      Here you go, Peter.
                      It's an SS-VT sidecap eagle from c. 1935.

                          No problem. I got it from Malcolm Bowers about 30 years ago and I've never seen another one since.
