Need help! Totenkopf buckle: real or fake?
I bought this for 20, so real or fake doesn’t exactly matter, but am very curious. Nice and heavy 71 grams. It looks like copper underneath a zinc plating (especially on the skull’s forehead and upper lip), but am not sure. Stamped R.Z.M. M34/2 with an SS logo mostly removed underneath the upper edge. I found a lot of fakes of this one in particular, but none that I found resembled this one. If it is fake, I’d still like to know the maker - really nice quality to it. The man I bought it from wasn’t trying to sell it wasn’t trying sell it as genuine or fake, just a belt buckle.
