Default German badge

I know these are no doubt reproduced to death ( no pun intended) and the number probably has no significance at all but can anyone please confirm that is or is not a dude ?

Thanks in advance.

Peter
Been looking for one For years but simple google search says RZM M1/25 is a bad sign but badge would display well, these are very scarce if original.

I have original cap eagle and early patten Skull but not this patten of Skull.
It appears to have some age.

Hope your keeping well

Regards

Stephen

Peter. A thread following the same theme. I posted a pic of mine (see link post 3) but Didier says that it is a fake (post 5).

Hi
I agree 100% copy, the ridge lines to skull are not detailed, the numbers to rear of skull poorly formed, and there's a shadow line around the badge, a poorly created fake.
Best wishes
Steve
