SS cap set

Since we don’t see too much original skulls or eagles up here, I want to show this sublime set. A very nice M1/72 bird and a nice M1/52 Deschler skull. All intact and untouched. This set came together(Neusilber).
(I think I might sell them so PM me when intrested)

Fake SS Buckle for the Rogues Gallery?

Hey, guys. I just recently saw this SS buckle selling for $300 USD and am pretty certain it's a fake due to the price and a general feeling. It's also not listed in the SS maker's database unless I missed something. It's hard to make out, but it has the RZM mark, SS in the diamond, and then is marked OLT/6263. I'd like to get confirmation that it's bad so it can go in the SS rogues gallery where I have not seen another like it.

Best,
Adam

US Compass ww1 or ww2

I hope that you guys can help me with this compass. It is a pocket watch type compass, the outside front is marked “US” and the maker name “Wittnauer” is marked on the face. My question is, is it a WW1 or a WW2 compass? I have seen it called both on line. Was it a WW1 hold over?
