    What were these for?

    I've seen pictures of SS soldiers sporting metal SS ruins on their collar tabs, but they look crude, some had hole to sew them onto the collar tab, none appeared to have "surface detail." So, any guess about these? They are the same size as collar tab ruins. There are pointed 'tabs' at the top and bottom of each ruin for attachment.

    The original ones were used by the Latvians (and Estonians) on their collar tabs and were 'locally made'.

      hi, I've never seen a pair of metal runes like these. Can you post the back ? I'd like to see the prongs.
      thanks

                    tab

                    thanks uscha , i like the metal runes the most , i wonder why the germans did not use metal , to me they are the most desirable tabs .
