From reading all the threads and posts about this item it looks ok from what I can tell it has the two rings around the rmz the number match and the details match it looks a bit to new or someone's cleaned it I not sure

Cast fake.

Thanks but how does one tell it is a cast fake? I am only relatively new to this so any help would be good thanks

Look at the edge of the badge, see how it varies in thickness and the way the pins are attached.

[James3567]

Thanks for that much appreciated should the pins be soldiered on the badge?

Look at the crisp details, the differences are huge.

Skulls and Sculls and Totenschaedel and....and....and.....do look at the existing threads, too, you might learn something.
