    Skull and eagle help

    Hey Guys!
    Sorry, this is all I have to go on. Can anyone venture to guess if these are original?
    Thanks!

      Does that mean the eagle is bad?
      Thanks a lot!

        The skull's eyes and nose look painted or at least unpunched.
        It looks like a three pronger as well.

          I think that is because they are behind glass and there are a couple of spots on the glass.
          Thanks!

            The skull is a Ges Gesch Assmann but is a mis-strike, you'll notice that the eye and nose holes are below where they should be.

            Can't comment with any certainty on the eagle but it looks as though it may be ok.

                On second viewing I agree with that opinion instead of a Ges Gesch type. I was looking at the finish and the mis-punched holes and missed the 10 o'clock prong bulge.

                    I think the skull is the 3 prong assmann- I have seen this mis strike before and you can also see the flattened areas where the prongs are folded.
