Officer Breast Eagle question

[Terrence]

Would someong be so kind at to post a couple of pictures that illustrate the difference between officer breast eagles used by the coastal artillery and regular kriegsmarine. I am under the impression there is a difference but the specifics elude me.

Hello Terrance I really don,t know what the difference would be
I know only that the administre officer,s wore silver bullion eagle,s instead of the golden one,s

[Terrence]

I am not convinced a difference exists. I see the difference between the wire bullion type and the cellon bullion type (both hand embroidered), but is there something (besides the color of the background material) that makes the officers eagle for the grey uniform different?

Hello Terrence indeed a very interesting qeustion you ask IMO
there would be no difference but let,s hear what the other,s have to say about this topic

Terrence:

I can't think of any difference save the background color. I've seen dozens of each type of eagle and the design has always been similar with the only variance due to the fact that they are hand-embroidered pieces.

If there is a difference, I'd sure be interested in learning what it is.
