need help w/ info on a dogtag

[waffendude]

picked this up in a grouping of items from the eastern front... not personally. Was needing some help on any type of info about this dogtag. I did some searching but not much luck. Any help would be appreciated.

Tag seems to have the fonts that Rokas used.

[waffendude]

And what are Rokas?

Well known fakes made from original unissued tags that came on the market several years ago.

from a ebay user named Rokas...


In this case I didn`t think that this is a fake.
I have never seen Rokas tags from Ersatz units.

I don't think it is a fake because it came with a bunch of ground dug relics from Russia.

Hello

right beside the dogtag, you can see a Hacken-Eisen (heel-iron ?) for shoes respectively boots.

It's Rokas type. Rokas stuff comes from Russia. Dug items came along.
Scrap this piece or keep it as a reference.

Why would someone throw in a fake dogtag of all things in with a bunch of ground dug relics. It included a helmet, gas mask with canister, mess kit, ccc appears to be silver, buttons, coins, iron cross, and a few other medals. What would you really gain with a dogtag that's been messed with? I wouldn't think it would make or break a sale.
thanks

Well considering the condition of the items in this lot this tag was added to add some value to this rubbish. I don't think if anybody would buy all these remainings otherwise.

And i guess this lot came with no provenance, paperwork describing the find, context etc.? ie. all the information needed to tie this in to a unit, battle and ultimately an individual.

and FWIW there was no Infanterie Ersatz Bataillon 329.
