yellow piped panzer collar tabs.

[ccnrecon]

These yellow tabs are applied to an original black wrap. I am not certain if the collar tabs are original or not. Any ideas?

That looks like a nice early wrap Could you show more general pics? I'm no expert in wraps but...isn't the yellow wool textile the same around the collar and the tabs?

Is the shoulder button numbered with a 4 and the shoulder board with a 6?

Here is a picture of the shoulder board

Shoulder boards from the Panzer-Nachrichten-Abteilung 6t with button with a 4 ?

Acording official regulations, the button with a "4" would identify the 4.Kp, the "6" embrodered on shoulder strap would be for Abt. 6

Yes. I understood that to mean 4th company 6th regiment. Any ideas on the collar tabs?

I doubt it could be a "6" for a regiment.
But i dont find any Nachrichten Abteilung with this n° in the 10 earlier Panzerdivision untill 1940, or even in others late ones.
For an early wool piped colar wrap, if it is confirmed that this wrap was manufactured before 1940, it would means that if the strap is original to this wrap, it would be the divisional level transmission unit of 6.Infanterie-Division :

That would logicaly imply then that this unit used some armored cars like Sd.Kfz 223, 232 (fu.) or 263, wich would be a surprise for me.
At this stage, i'm a little bit puzzled with this n° 6 unit designation.
As a sidenote, the embrodery quality of the "6" is rather crude imo, not like the clasical chaine stiched ones, but i know several variations existed.
Maybe there is another explaination i missed.
The color of piping looks zitronengelb, not goldgelb.

Markings of said wrap:

[derka]

Thank you for the pic of markings, but they don't give us a date of manufacturing.

[ccnrecon]

Another pic. Wrap is for sure genuine and early but  I don’t recall ever seeing a wrap with a seam on the outside of the rear collar.

, but they don't give us a date of manufacturing.

From examples I have seen (with similar size stamps) they are dated 39-40. (B II 39-40)

I'm sorry to say that I am not feeling it with this jacket.

[ccnrecon]

Indeed. The base wrap is real but i am not sure about the rest. I am trying to determine if the insignia are ok. The tabs are sewn on with thread that is totally different from the garment’s construction.  The yellow piping is coarser than what I would expect from a factory application.  Could all of this be explained?  I do not know.

This jacket could have been pimped up with a new piping + collar patches ?
But when ?
The number 6 has been later added and is not the typical pre war embroidery quality .
