Nice docs. No problem with authenticity that I see.

Looking good.
Just for your info: Rgt.Gef.Std. = Regimental Combat Post.

so that's to say it was signed at the reg combat post on that date then?
I've been searching for values, but most of these are in groupings so I can really get an idea of value per piece. any ideas?------------------------------------------------

Thats correct. "den (on) 11.3.1944."
Andre Huesken is selling Ost medal doc for 45-50 euro and KVK 2cl for about the same. IMO yours would be a bit more cause they are panzer. Can't find Pz Assault badge doc for sale but that one would go for much more.

Huesken isn't a good yardstick on document prices as he's pretty much the most expensive out there.
For such a famous unit it's a pity none of them have any famous signatures, like Adalbert Schulz, the previous commander of Pz.Rgt.25 to the guy you see here Thomé. Same with the KVK, unlucky that it's not signed by Funck.Collecting German award documents, other paperwork and photos relating to Norway and Finland.Comment

Well, no "big" signatures, and only fair condition. Ballpark - not to be taken as gospel - around $100 to $125, depending how much you like the unit or a silver panzer badge doc.Originally posted by scotty1418 View Post

I wanted to bump this OLLLLLLD thread to see if the valuation is still valid? In addition to the award certificates there are a few leave passes and telegrams - one I believe announces the birth of the soldier's child! ...about 10-12 pieces in all.
Thanks for any advice!------------------------------------------------

Could anyone wage a ballpark value for the grouping including some telegrams and passes?------------------------------------------------

Honestly, telegrams and passes might add 3-5 dollars/euro tops. While it's nice to have those to "round out" the grouping, most collectors are more interested in the military award docs.
