The elusive Deschler 254/42 Totenkopf

[Aldo]

The elusive and expensive Deschler 254/42 Totenkopf. A small contract badge made for the SS mid-war and fairly hard to find. However, this nice skull has made many appearances on the forum within the last few years and on some of our favorite dealer websites. I thought I'd make a thread with several images as a good reference point for those on the hunt for one. There are two types of pins used on these. If I missed any feel free to post more examples.

I'll start with mine that I managed to find last year
