A USED AND WORN SS 2nd PATTERN SKULL FOR THE WAFFEN SS NOT GERMAN WEHRMACHT
(CS107) A Superb example of the seldom encountered 2nd Pattern SS Totenkopf Cap Badge. The badge is of die cast zinc with a silver finish applied. This has worn over the years, giving it a nice two toned appearance. The reverse of the badge has both its prongs affixed into the reverse of the metal of the badge. The badge is also maker marked RZM 499/41. Nice crisp striking. This is a textbook example of the 499 type. The badge was recently purchased in a local auction from the estate of an ex British Serviceman namely Mr Sandford, we can give this as we had his WWII medals . SORRY I WAS SOLD IN 2018
