Reinhard Heydrich "Death Mask" stamps
Hello,
I'm currently on a visit to Prague, Czech Republic and i've visited some antique stores here and there, there was one that interested me and sold some TR militaria and as i was looking around i found a four-block reinhard heydrich death mask stamp group and i'm actually looking for a stamp like that for my collection but i was wondering, are such stamps faked usually?
Unfortunately, i don't have any pictures of the stamps.. if they are usually faked, can someone post a reference link?
Btw, i also wanted to know the price ranges for such stamps and if i can find them anywhere online.
Thank you in advance and best regards,
Hindash

Hindash, enjoy your time in Prague - a beautiful city indeed.
Regarding these "Death Mask" stamps, be VERY careful. The desirable example is the presentation piece on card - they are heavily faked and can be pretty convincing - if you really want one, study them thoroughly beforehand and proceed with caution.
Regards,
Carl

You are welcome. If I remember correctly, over 1 million pieces were produced, so the basic stamp is available for a few Euros, with a block (of 4 pcs) probably near the 25 Euros mark. As mentioned above though, the presentation piece is the real catch. I'll send you a link via PM shortly.
Regards,
Carl

Thank you very much Clark and Leon for the information, i appreciate it!
Thing is, i'm just looking for the normal stamps and not the presentation piece.. so do i have to worry if i buy a normal four block or a single stamp? i found some for good prices on ebay..
Best Regards,
Hindash

Hey guys,
I'm thinking of buying the four-block piece offered.. it's for a good price too.
I know the presentation pieces are being faked but i'm just interested in the normal stamps for my collection.. what do you think?
Best Regards,
Hindash
