For me that set is perfectly original, what about your opinions on it?

The wreath and cockade looks fine. But I am not sure about the eagle to be honest? I would err on the side of caution and pass on it if offered to me. The metal used looks odd for a Luftwaffe eagle. Is it alloy?
Cheers, Ade.
An odd looking eagle, never seen an assmann marked like that with the big 42, and the old style A, so like Ade, I would pass, though it could be good. Wreath probably good.

I think's that it's just aluminium.
I saw one like this in a very known militaria site selling a Assmann of '43 with the very same style:

That one I like. It is the material that bothers me on the other.
Cheers, Ade.
This one is the same construction, same details and markings..
May be some better pic's are needed..
Assmann did use also aluminium in his insignia, that's a fact.
like e.g a ss cap skull, ss cap eagle etc
Still not convinced sorry.
Cheers, Ade.
more opinions?
I wouldn't want to own that eagle either, ...
