SS metal cap eagle M/8 Wagner....

[giorgio]

Hi to everyone,
One week ago I got this nice SS metal cap, Wagner M8....three prongs intact and a lot of character...I like it a lot but I don't understand if it's in tombak or CupAL...
very heavy g. 9.53......
What do you think?
Thanks
Giorgio

This is the classic M1/8 reproduction, sorry. The bends in the head and neck and also the color of the base material and the weight tells it all.

At first I thought it was made from a mould of an original but when I compared it
with mine on a cap I was able to see so many differences.The most obvious is the
neck its too short and so it goes on.I hope you didnt pay too much for it.

Really thanks for your opinions folks....
On these m/8 Wagner I have to study a little more.......

OK, these are much better castings than the one posted here first, but when we see this particular neck flaw on a Wagner, it is always bad. They also have the flat/smashed top of the head, just like the first one posted in this thread does, but that is more noticeable when looking at the back side of these eagles. Unfortunately, these fake eagles are all on visors, (also fakes, I'm sure). Anyway, I have mentioned these things in the past, but I'm sure that it has been quite a while. Notice that these same fakes come in all sorts of materials.


Hope this helps!

Here is what an original looks like around this area.
