Help needed with this skull.
I recently bought a collection of items that had been gathered up by someone right after the end of German Occupation of Guernsey. I had to buy the lot from more or less what I could see in the attached photograph . It was a bit risky as 2 other potential buyers had actually seen the kit first hand and made offers. Being in Jersey I just had to go on what I could see. Anyway I got the lot with the exception of the funeral sash, and when it arrived I was more than pleased as everything was original.
The skull is something I know nothing about, other than I know its not SS and so I guess from a Panzer collar tab. I was just hoping one of the Forum members specialises in this area and can confirm what it is.
There is a prong missing unfortunately, but any part of German tank uniforn in the Channel Islands is extremely rare. I do have a skull from here in Jersey but its a slightly different example most likely down to maker.
Its not a major item but something I am interested in finding out more about.
All the best from Jersey,
D
