Rare card · No. 36035

Totenkopf (German: [ˈtoːtn̩ˌkɔpf], lit. 'dead person's head') is a German compound word for death's head. The word is often used to denote a particular design of a symbol common in Western culture, consisting of a human skull – usually frontal, more rarely in profile with or without the mandible. In English, the term is associated with Nazi Germany, where the skull insignia was used as a uniform emblem of the SS.
