I'm not really familiar with nazi symbols, but I'm pretty sure it's not how it looks and should look the opposite way. The design is really similar though, so I'm not sure. Maybe they had different styles over the years?
Stylized most likely, but the symbolism is obvious.
The facing of the skull isn't relevant to the symbol itself. It can face either way. A trend in recent years has been the reduction or removal of the crossbones in an attempt to make it less publicly recognizable but still close enough that it can be seen by those who look for it.
Though the image is quite blurry and they could still be there but unable to be made out.
