Hello


Like all the others said: Trash !


Best regards, Fronti

[Ostarrichi997]

Thanks to all of you!

Could anyone tell me what gives it away that it's a fake? The lettering? As I would like to learn, I would appreciate it if someone could let me know what the give aways are. Were these usually machine stamped? In that case there would have to be an imprint on teh reverse.... anyway, just trying to learn.

Thx,
Os

as Fronti mentions the font among other things, ,
- most easy to see is,, you can see the stamps were applied on over the patina/ageing.

[Eike41]

look at the stamping with a magnifying glass and the stamped letters should have the same corrosion/rust as the disk itself.

[5thFallschirm.]

Exactly, perhaps the disc is an orginal dug-up one, but the stamps are very bad.
You see these kinds most often, blanco dugged up EKM"S with new SS stamps.
If they had made an normal Heer unit of it perhaps someone would fall into it... luckely they don't do that...

I´m asking myself why so many Trash is popping up again and again in Austria
