Panzer breast eagle

[scharfschutzeNL]

I have this uniform removed panzer breast eagle in my collection and I would like some opinions about this one. Is it Early, mid or late war made?

Early and original.

Hi,

To pass on some information that the helpful guys in this forum gave me (thanks Fred Green, Matt, and Glenn!) with some eagles I have picked up:

1: 1st pattern, also called M34 (introduced in 1934).

2: 2nd pattern, also called M36 (introduced in 1936).

3: 3rd pattern, also called M40 (introduced in 1940, grey thread like the army eagles introduced in 1940).

4: 4th pattern, also called M44 (introduced in 1944).
