Hi guys, just received a nice portrait of a oberleutenant with unknown collartabs?
Somebody who knows?

Hi,

I think those are the tabs worn by members of the Army General Staff.

They are high grade tabs of the army admin. corps (HV) Heers Verwaltung. Those were gold. They held officer equivalent ranks.
