29th Div. Italian SS insignia

[jules61]

I want to brush up on this beautiful thread by posting these two collar tabs.
I would be happy to know, if they are original Dachau collars or they are of the most recent reproductions.
Thank you very much to those who want to remove this doubt!
Best!

I don't think these tabs are for Italian SS , they also look bad to me.

Welcome to the SS forum.

I have looked for the 'arrows' collar insignia for20 years and have never found one.

Thank you VERY much for posting these fine insignia.

Not even going to venture a guess on the authenticity of this, has rough edges but there things are evidently rare as hen's teeth

They are definitely made to deceive and are Extremely good reproductions in my opinion. If they were original they could have been for Italian Waffen-SS and not for SA Führung.

Well considering whatever the red tabs are . No one held that rank with red Tabs in the Italian SS highest rank held was brigadefuhrer by an Italian .

I found this semi dangerous new fake on the internet . As you can see the feathers under the wings are not as rounded as the older fakes. Some of the embroidery is still off . If someone were to rough up the front obscuring the detail might deceive .
I’ve never had it in hand so I don’t know what the back looks like or material used.

Usually the first tell on the older fakes is the rounded under feathers , these are not perfect but definitely pointier .

This is a public service announcement ☠️

Hello guys! I would like to have your opinion about this Eagle. I think that this has got all the features of an original one and a lot of italian experts like it. I just want to be sure of its originality. Thank you with advance.

It's certainly not the same as the examples I've seen before and the one in my collection.

Hi guys, thank you for reply. Can you give me more details? I wont to compare the informations you will give to me with the ones I have.

I just want to say that the strangers dark dots you see on the back are because the badge was attached with glue on a surface. Is not a problem of stamp or matherial which is made on.

Hi,

there is so many things that are wrong with your model that this is almost difficult to list everything...
Position of the pins at the back, the head of the eagle, the legs, the claws, the lictor bundles (many parts)...

Originals were posted on the first pages, you can easily compare below the original of Francesco (Nostradamus) vs. the model you presented.

See You
