Hello Sergey,
I looked at your tab for some time before giving it a thumbs down. My concerns were directed at the size of the tab, the form/shape of the tab and the angle and detail of the bullion work. Your tab may actually be real, but it seems to lack many of the key elements I look for when judging these. Perhaps in hand, it would tell a different story. I have posted an example in my collection for comparison.
Best Regards, Peter

Wow, Peter, that's a great bit if information regarding the tab in question, and a nice comparion tab you've added to the thread. I would add that backing material looks nice, and was likely lifted from an original LW or similiar tab. Regards, Robert

I would also not have bought this tab if offered to me.
Like Peter said the quality of such a high ranking tab is not there. Its also correct that the angles of the embroidery in the leafs are not correct. The tab seems sloppy and is not of the correct shape of the war time used unterlagen.

hmm, not so sure if it is really a faked one
