Heer tank lanyard... does everything look OK before I buy?

[BROBS]

opinions on this please?
To me the device looks original for sure, but the lanyard is in very good condition I can't tell. I don't have experience with these so I am not positive what to look for...

thanks in advance.

also what exactly was this lanyard for... especially in relation to the panzer assault badge?

what is the difference between the two?

the PAB was for destroying a tank and this was for proficiency in driving a tank?

just trying to learn here.

Hi,

From what you show the lanyard appears to be original but you would need to provide a full picture in order for verifcation to be made. This, depending on the number of shells or acorns, is a 9-12th grade lanyard.

It was given for marksmanship and has no relationship to the PAB except that it was awarded to Panzer troops.

There are no acorns...
here is a shot showing the whole thing, although not in great detail.


interesting that it's for marksmanship... I guess it makes sense though, as Luft and KM had their own lanyards as well.

is $175 a fair price for it?

Here are some pictures of the whole lanyard plus a couple or PABs that are about to go onto the estand.

I'm the seller by the way and BROBS asked if he could post the pictures for verification.
