Looks like the round lapel fake with period dogs hair to fool the unsuspecting. J

I need really a definitive answer. Seller sold it to me as tank tunic, not a word of SS. He just didn´t know it. I later looked for the place, where the eagle was and did not found anything. Than i realized the markings on the left sleeve.

I spoke to some and they mean, the wrapper is real. But lets see. Maybe yes, maybe not.

For that, what i have heard, this should be a wehrmacht wrapper, later used in the ss.

Just one word: Yesterday i saw, that above the stamps is a quadrangular moulding (hopefully this is the right word fpr that). Maybe for an label or something.

Thanks and please more opinions.

You can take Jacquesf's response as definitive, it is a fake. I was going to say that only the two pebbled buttons may be WWII, but actually the lining is as well, only its from a pre-war Greatcoat........all the sewing looks very new....last few months maybe.
