    Fighter pilot document stamps

    Hi, would like some opinions on these jagdgeschwader 53 stamps on fighter pilot clasp documents. One for the bronze and one for the gold both awarded to the same pilot.
    On this one i was wondering about the "stab" at the bottom section of the stamp. the letters are not evenly spaced and the b looks like it's on an angle. Also on the other stamp the c and h are very close together.
    Is this normal for original period stamps.

        Hello,

        Sorry but I don't like the stamps.
        Can you please show the compleet documents?
        Perhaps the signatures on the documents can help us.

        Cheers,
        Peter

          In German, the letter combinations "ch" and "sch" are considered to be special phonetics, so that it is not unusual to see them tightly spaced relative to other letters - however, it is wrong to see "s" separate from "ch" where the three letters are consecutive under that system.

          That's not proof that the stamp is false, since the makers of the stamp are only human and sometimes errors or improvisations occur. For example, I have seen an early-style Nazi Party eagle used in the stamp of an army unit on a legit document.

          It's a red flag when there are variations in the stamp but the other elements of the document have to be considered in combination.
