The skull was made with both pin attachments. The "cone attatchment" is late war as I understand it.
Here's a Zimmermann set that I used to own.

It's a cast fake, sorry.

Thanks guys.

HistoryIsMe, these birds are selling for $300 - $1500 USD (or more) depending on condition, maker, material etc.

It looks good from the pics, however, Niederlande is correct, to be certain, better pics are needed.
Always be cautious when a seller can't give you good close up photos.

Here is one of the rarest visor caps eagles. I hope you'll like it.204638204639

Perhaps they do manifest a decline in quality from the production of same in early years. However, I'd love to have this one, with the "been there" look, currently for sale by a Norwegian friend....

You are welcome...

Agreed.

Yes, Assmann skulls are not always marked and the Deschler-like skull (as far as I know the maker is unknown) is unmarked. Also the Deschler - like "closed eyes" skull is unmarked. The Collector's...

Imo this skull is 100% original (and I've owned a few) so I'd be very grateful
if you gave us some indications whats wrong with it, in your opinion, please.

Nice skull!cool militaria

No hard feelings, we are all here to learn, noone knows everything.

Your ground dug is a nice example, if it only could speak.

Dear F-B, you are a Gentleman with great knowledge and I'd be a fool if I didn't listen to your advice.

As I've said in the past, I'll do my best to help you, finding the silver-washed insignia...

Thanks Emiel, Yes I know, usually I don't care what others believe, even if I admit that it's nice
when people like your stuff. However, sometimes I just getting so tired, especially when someone...

Whatever.

You do realize that it is people like you, who make people like me stop posting, don't you?

Thank you Gents!:)

Of course you are free to think whatever you want, however, with a post like this you
are showing what kind of knowledge you have regarding these things.

The skull is (and I hate this term)...

Thank you. The eagle is a rare bird to find in any condition.

Thank you SteveR, yes, I agree, it's thrilling to know were it came from.

I'll post a couple of photos of the set when the eagle has arrived.

Thanks Ade, I'm glad you liked it. I also have an incomming M1/24 eagle in a bit more worn condition. It ought to arrive in a couple of weeks.
I believe they'll look pretty good together....

Just bought this nice M1/24 skull.

I hope you like it. It's pretty rare in this condition.
Also, it comes from a Finnish veteran who served in Nordland.

However, I believe we can all agree that what ever it is, it isn't an original Assmann skull.

Nothing wrong with the first skull.

Now, that was a word I had to look up. However, I found it very proper. My contribution to the "Hitler's desk set" thread on the other site was this post.
