4 German chin-straps

[Ferdinand W.]

Hello,

I recently discovered 4 helmet chin-straps in a box in the attic.

They were my father's, he must have had them for over 30 years.

I don't know if they are original or not, looks as if they were pairs
of each.



I numbered them from 1 - 4

#1 and #2 are RbN numbered, #3 and #4 have no visible markings.

I would really appreciate your opinion on them, perhaps they are fine ?

Thanks a lot in advance for your help !

I do not think any are good - all have incorrect stiching and some have the humpback buckle (number 1 and 2) - which are known fakes.

sorry - please wait for others to comment.

All four are bad!, as stated #1 /#2 are the "humpback" buckle design, which is a common easily identifiable fake. The other 2, a little better fake, but bad nonetheless!

Hello to all,

thank you very much for the replies and comments !

I already thought so, good that there were no $$ involved.

I found them, so no real loss for me.

Thanks again for your help !
