      Post 24-30

      Felix,
      Could you elaborate on the reason(s) the tab in posts 24-25 is a fake?

        The kind of prongs of the pips I have never seen on an original before. The pips also looks very small. The elongated shape of the tab Im not happy with.

        After a clooser look, is it the same collar tab in post 24 and 25? One with border wire and the other no?

          The runic doesn't look anything like an original. Compare it to originals in this forum. I believe the last eagle is known as the "bowling pin fake" (for obvious reasons).

            That's the tab I initially asked about. What were you refering to in your last post?

              From the photos I now realise it is not the reverse of the tab shown in post 24 shown in post 25. However Im not too keen on either of them based on my criteria of original insignia. Please read my earlier comments.

              Best regards,
              Felix
