Lots of organizations used the black rhomboids: LW Pioneers, SD, SS volunteer outfits, RAD, unissued (unnumbered) SA, etc. Based on that backing material, I'd lean toward LW pioneers.

But could be used by the SD as well. Look original, I'd say. s/f Robert

Sorry Gwen, I thought they were black not dark blue. They are probably KM enlisted then, and I'd say around 45.00 USD a pair. I'm no expert, but that's about what i've seen them sell for. Hope that helps. s/f Robert

Thanks RobertE.....anyone else could precise your opinion...?
It's important for me to finalized transaction....if you have a picture to confirm it....i'd never seen these collars on KM tunic....!!!
Many thanks

Sorry Gwen, I can't really tell what color they are from the bluish background they're on - if they are black, not blue, then I'd go for LW engineers (black). s/f Robert

Gwen, not LW flak (red), but LW pioneer (black). The material on the back is not the usual stuff seen on SS/SD tabs, but is very common on LW collar tabs. That almost fabric-type material is on a great deal of the LW tabs I own, but not on any SS/SD. Others could certainly have their opinions, but that material looks more like LW or possibly KM to me.

In the close-up I can see the contrasting stripe, and thanks for pointing that out to me. The LW greatcoat black tabs had litzen, but closer to the edge and shaped like an "L". Yours are different.

I have seen NSKK tabs used as SS ones, so with that litzen trace they could have been worn by the SD, if they are black. If they are a shade of blue, then they could be KM, LW medical, or others.

Not much help, I'm afraid. s/f Robert
