    Dagger Hanger identification please!

    Hi,
    I intend to sell these hangers on the estand but there is some debate over their origins/type. I think that they are heer hangers, with a slightly greener shade of backing than normal. There is no reaction to UV.

    They are not;
    a: DDR
    b: Land Customs

    Thank you in anticipation - sorry if you have already seen them and commented.

    John

    The fittings and facing material would suggest Heer, but the shade of green on the back is way off. You'd have a hard time selling them to me as Army hangers.

    Sorry I can't be of more help,

      There are plenty of post-war assembled hangers using (mostly in this case) original components. Many of these "mint" examples that people find are post-war assembled.

        Thanks Jeff - can I assume then that these hangers are (at worst) post-war assembled from original components, and at best original WW2 era but with a lighter green than normal? If this is the case, what would they be worth as I intend to sell them.

          John, the green backing is unfortunately not just a shade lighter than normal, it's way off. It's even going to be difficult to sell as a reproduction due to this issue. Your hangers just aren't a close match to any organization I'm aware of. Because originals generally average somewhere in the $100 range. I would be surprised if these would command more than a third of that. Good luck, but you've got a tough row to hoe.
