It looks like its from a Totenkopf collar tab. I wonder why he couldn't get the right skull for his cap? Was it a late War job when everything was hard to get.
Hundestaffel thanks for post this image up, as its the first one I've seen like this

Just like some SS Officers wear Heer eagles on their sleeves or visors...Comment

I've seen a metal tk on a blank black tab before and that is how that vet took it off the ss soldier

I think it's another example of using what they had at the time.
Great photo.
