SS Totenkopf “k” Collar Tab

Any problems with this? Just sold at auction

Just my opinion.
I really don't like the shape of the head. And the material seems wrong.

Tab

If cavemen formed an SS guard unit, their tabs would look like this one. I don't care for the shape of the skull. Too Neanderthal for me.

Hi,
These tabs finished in 1937 therefore not a 1945 tab.

These bullion TK are notoriously difficult and sometimes impossible to determine with certainty.
I too am not very comfortable with this tab. The teeth, the ends of the cross bones, and the overall shape is not very good and is more in line with most repros in my opinion.

I agree with the above, the characteristics of this example are off mark.

Hi,

However they definitely DID crop up in amongst the souvenirs liberated in 1945 which is probably what the tag really trying to mean.
