Posting for a friend, as these are TOTALLY outside my field. Any chance that this eagle and skull (or either of them) are real? Thanks!

The eagle is not original IMO. I do not like the top feathers on the left side. I doubt the skull too. Mike.Comment

Thanks, Mike! I thought the eagle might be real but had no idea one way or the other on the skull (shows how much I know about SS stuff!).Comment

Leroy, I hope some more learned members also add their opinions just to confirm. Mike.Comment

I believe these extra photos, provided to me this morning, will hopefully conclude this. The skull, it turns out, is stamped "800" under the jaw (which, I understand, is itself a matter of contention).
Again, thanks for the comments. These are NOT mine, just posting for a non-member friend, as I was not able to tell him anything useful.Comment

Leroy, I really do not like the eagle at all. The skull just doesn't look right to me. The black looks like artificial aging to me. Sorry. Just my opinion. Mike.Comment

No need to feel sorry at all, as my friend asked me to post and get opinions and that's what we're doing! They may not be the opinions he would like to hear, but that's the way it is. I appreciate your comments!Comment

Both are 100% fake. No doubt.Comment

Thank you, gentlemen! My friend is disappointed, but also appreciative. I've tried to talk him into joining here, but he has been resistant. Maybe this will bring him along.

Hat
We should look at hat as well, or is the issue with the insignia enough to handle already?Originally posted by Leroy View PostThank you, gentlemen! My friend is disappointed, but also appreciative.
