Hmmm. . . interesting eagle. Well made but butt ugly, my guess is it's wartime foreign manufacture

Hi Ron,

I don't think this is a genuine, Third Reich breast eagle. I don't know what it is, but it doesn't follow any of the templates I've seen.

I wouldn't dismiss this one so fast. Looks like it's been on a uniform. Granted, it's a very strange configuration. Any info, Ron?

wow this is a very interesting one, ill have to sit on the fence about it.
sorry i cant be of more help,
cheers

Genuine Third Reich is different from Third Reich era. I'm inclined to agree with Gene here...while it does have some admirable qualities, I would say it's from another Axis power if anything.

Might be real, but if so then almost certainly foreign made.

[Bond]

Some of the features, such as the outlining on the innner wing feathers, reminds me of Italian made insignia.

Hello, I like it. It is very well made, and tight . Best, Bill Bourque

Could be foreign, but I'm leaning towards fantasy item.., the type of backing isn't my favorite either.
I've not enough evidence though to call it a straight fake item.

This one was acquired about twenty years ago from a now deceased collector of Luftwaffe uniforms and insignia along with several other Luft eagles of different sorts.


A couple more

Top one is nice, bottom one is a stinker IMO

Ron - top one is closest to being original, in my opinion, even though it's different than most of the eagles I've come across. The second one you posted I would not qualify as original Third Reich, either.
