I have no doubts, about the authenticity of this group & especially the Cufftitle. For the following reasons : it came directly from the family in Gaildorf bei Schwaebisch Hall in Southern Germany, near where my relatives live. Secondly, there are a lot of "Volksdeutscher" Ethnic Germans from Croatia, who live in that area, and many surviving members of the "Prinz Eugen" SS Gebirgsjaeger division amongst them. I have never seen this type of Cufftitle for sale anywhere, even from the Austrian fakers like Gerhard Nehyer who specialized in SS items in the 1970's & 1980's.
Somehow I don't think the ex-SS Obersturmfuehrer had the Cufftitle made for him after the war, it was most definately worn & cut off a tunic.
