What kind of SS Skull is this?

[Wuerstenfuchs]

I was wondering if anybody could tell me what kind of SS Skull this is? I know they have designations, but there are so many I am confused. Thanks much!

Hi Bob, there are many variation of skulls. But these early style jawless ones are all lumped together as "first pattern" types.

Cheers, Ade.

Hi Ade - Thanks for the info. What do you think about the fact that it is neither painted or plated? Is that unusual? Or Bad? Or doesn't matter?

Hi Bob, no, it is fine. Nothing wrong with it.

Cheers, Ade.

i think that the antique first pattern skull is the best looking one.
i am lucky enough to have one in my collection, but as i learned the hard way there are some very good repro's.... (bought my first one on good luck, but that didn't go so well;p)

Here's one of mine that looks pretty much the same, although as ever with esteemed other members any comments welcome! Please be gentle though.
