Long-time fan of the site and first time poster! I value your opinions and wanted to see if you could help me identify an impulse buy item from a militaria auction. Yep, its another silly skull… Normally, I do all the research on any item before a purchase but like all novice Third Reich collectors, saw a skull up to bid and I wanted it. Needless to say, I didn’t do my homework until after winning the bid (yep, pretty stupid). I know there are endless SS fakes out there but I took the risk and luckily, I didn’t pay very much for the thing. I wanted to see if this could even be an original. It looks alot like the early SS or maybe panzer skull or it could just a paki fake. It has no maker marks and is very aged on front and especially the back.

Is this original or just an example of "you got what you paid for"? notcool
(sorry for the pics but its the best I can get )

Help…:b:.

Do these eyes match correctly with early SS?

Very aged in the back

I’ll admit, it looks better up close and does not appear to be a cast.

Thanks guys cool militaria
