Its a mix of Schuma and SD insignia.... Note black backed shoulderboards...
There was an SD School somewhere in Belarus if I remember correctly that trained Schuma men...
The SS-Hstuf rank litzen look bad, the tabs are just sat on top like they were added yesterday which knowing the source isn't that surprising. There is quite clear signs of Police/Heer litzen as Nick pointed out.
It is not a police cut tunic, though it could have been reworked. If it were a rebuilt tunic, the pocket pleats could have been removed on the upper pockets, and they appear to be a slightly different shade. The overall color is right for such a tunic, however.
It definitely had regular army / police length tabs on the collar.
Given the scarcity of these tunics, it's hard to say what is proper. I personally would wait for another, but that's just me.
IMOTo me personally, it don't look right, could be wrong as another member said correctly, they are so rare it's hard to get a read on them.
All pockets look a shade darker green than the tunic. Replaced or moved, or could be a different fabric vendor.
Collar insignia definitely replaced from original IMO army EM long tabs. IMO this, to me, would indicate it was not an original issued tunic, makes one wonder what else was added or replaced.
