Both are well-known fakes.

The skull isn't even a good fake.

Indeed. Fakes 'from the days of disco' as an old friend used to say.

These were never stamped with SS runes for starters.

These were never stamped with SS runes for starters.

Eagles were; skulls were not.

Reagrdless, both of these are fakes.

[Rob E.]

That's the one I meant.

Thanks.

Thanks

Thank you all.
The eagle and skull are now registered as another Helmut Weitze sold fake.
