Opinions on Luftwaffe summer tunic breast eagles? - Assmann

[Gernika81]

Hi guys. I want to sell these I had in my collection but first I would like to make sure they are authentic. IMHO they are. Am I wrong? Thanks in advance for your opinions!

Well IMO the second one is 100% fake.
Then there is the long discussion about the first one among collectors.
Some say original and some say fake.

I'd consider e first one pictured and discard the second (the catch is the most evident giveaway).

Without the “DRGM” mark, many would pass on the first one, too.

Gernika81 take a look in this long thread about Assmann eagles.

Believe there are genuine Assmann examples without the DRGM mark. However, agree regarding the first example, do not like certain details of it. Recommend passing on both.

I have a couple of LW breast eagles and I have one of those Assmann Eaglas also, I got it late 70s/ or early 80s I don´t remember exactly.


Post pictures of it so that you can compare.
