One thing to keep in mind with toggles, is that there are tons of blank toggles out there, either on 'sneaks' or from the factory (WW1, Weimar, WW2, Vopo) that could and were probably used.

Fred, although You paid a ton of money, a conversation piece like this is always interesting. I was 'dogged' out by a couple of collectors but I bought a 'deaths head' luger on purpose, knowing it was fake, because, by gum, I wanted one, that and the price I paid was just above a shooter price.
