Still in dust and sand- wow after years when theiir were ,,discovered,,
True purist collectors (: (I"ven more like me)
As I always wrote I could be wrong (:

Re: Danzinger Skull ?
Thanks for the reply and yes I have been doing a little reading on the subject and do find that they are controversial amongst collectors. If I remember correctly did you not bury one for four months in your garden as an experiment.

Re: Danzinger Skull ?
Many variations of these exist, and for myself, I am not sure of the Berlin Baugrube story, though I know that much of said place dear to me has been dug up in the last twenty years, and many interesting things found in the Maerkischen Sand......
All things being equal, try to find one as I have enclosed. The Steinhauer und Lueck one with the RZM is surely a real, SS one. I do not know if I own one, though I think I do, as I never pry these off.
They are also generally unmarked.

Re: Danzinger Skull ?
Thank you Friedrich this is the first example I have had in hand and thought it would be a good opportunity to do some study and research as I do find them a curios artifact .
I do know these to be controversial I am finding it difficult to match this particular piece with known originals but I do have the use of it for a week or so so I will continue to see if I can match the detail with an original.
So far though I am unconvinced.

Re: Danzinger Skull ?
Thank you again Friedrich I looked towards the Guild for an example last night and there is not one there as to your query on the weight it is very light.
As to the price if I so desire to own it is very reasonable and would only put me back the cost of a decent dinner and a bottle of wine all though the latter does hinge of course on originality of the said piece a little more time on research on my side is needed before I decide.
