Like the 3 prong Skull - the fact it's been mis-stamped adds to its appeal.

Skulls

1. The 3-pronged skulls have been discussed ad infinitum - apparently originals DO exist.
2. Early SS skull - look very CLOSELY on back for any lettering.....looks like an St.& L. skull - if so...it should have RZM logo, letters "St.& L."....and the words, "Ges.Gesch." Die flaws on skull are consistent with this mfgr...but I see no writing on back. (If manufactured prior to 1933....maybe it's not marked...STILL looks like an St.& L.
3. Army regimental skull on left is probably fake
4. " " " on right looks legit.
5. Eagle looks legit, IMO.

IMO all three Imperial type skulls are not orginal.
Two Braunschweig pattern skulls are not orginal.
One Danziger type not orginal
Assman type three prongs mis-stamped skull in my opinion is not possible to proof 100% orginality of this type.I know they exist in couple variants but......
Here is orginal Braunschweig pattern skull.

Skulls

BOB - Does the SS skull have any markings? Look really close...sometimes it's faint. Lettering should be raised. There should be a round RZM logo in the center behind the forehead. I see some of the same die-flaws as on my St.& L. skull.
All of this mfgr.'s skulls I've seen have been marked....regardless, I can tell with better photos.
PLEASE POST MORE PHOTOS OF THIS SKULL WITHOUT FLASH......FRONT & BACK & ANGLED.
NICE, CLEAR CLOSEUPS....
If it's an St.& L., it's very desirable.
