Thankyou both for your help... can you help me understand why this one is a fake, so I can learn what to look out for in the future ?

Junk. For future reference no authentic skull had SS on it.

This is a typical 2nd/3rd generation reproduction of the Austrian fakes from the 80's.
The first generation of these fakes were made of aluminum and were marked "RZM SS 360/42". If you look those up, you can learn more about this type of reproduction. As was stated, no original skulls had SS runes. Lastly, no original Assmann skull has these deep sutures. Original Assmann skulls have very faint dots for the sutures. Hope this helps!
