Re: SS cap eagle, aluminum and unmarked...... real?
Welcome newbie, first of all, it not aluminum, but zinc and a good Assmann late war three flatprong ss viroscap eagle.
But be aware that this piece suffers from zinc rot. And could infect other zinc pieces.The process cannot be stopped completely and therefor would not be for me.
A shame really, especially since this piece has a very nice patina.
And I do believe there will be a marking on the left backside. If you can plse check

I have never seen an Assmann zinc eagle with flat prongs.

Hey Niederlande, i knew it was zinc, i just mis-spoke, i was e-mailing someone else the same time i was posting and just kept saying aluminum, lol ... Bob, i agree, i never have seen a flat prong Assmann, but it does look original, what is your take on it?
