Tom and Brian, appreciate the comments. Dave I've taken the cap outside and twisted and turned it everyway, but it's just too worn out to try and make out any maker on the plastic diamond - thanks for the good idea though.
The cap was gift so I'll hold onto it anyway until the real one comes along one day. Still looks pretty cool amongst my military collection.
take care and a thank you to the folks who responded, AL R
Both, the skull, and the eagle are absolutely pathetic reproductions, compared to the originals and the high quality fakes.
Still, they look great for display, especially when they are free.
