Joe,

I should clarify even more. The size and position of the Death Head varies for the SS/VT. There are 3 specific positions where the Death Head is stamped on the back of the frog. Why the different sizes of Death Heads, I do not know. There are also the SS/VT WW1 frogs that have the Death Head & Date (very early).

For the SS/TV there is usually only one location for the Standarte Property Stamp. SS/TV Property Stamp can be a combination of Death Head with numbers; Death Head with numbers & Date; Death Head with Letters, Numbers; and sometimes date. Bayonet serial numbers are sometimes found on the SS/TV Frogs.

Waffen SS camp made frogs can be found completely sterile or with the SS VA stamp. SS VA Stamp can also accompany the frog manufacturer logo.
