    SS tab real or fake

    I spotted this SS collar tap in a shop in the North west for $100. and listed as
    "Nazi insignia". I am a helmet guy and know nothing of SS tabs. So, my question is
    Real or fake??.
    thanks in advance

          Old "east European" fake that were so common on e-bay 7-8 years ago.
          Pips are red flags and you can notice the two strand border.

            I cannot see the difference from this one, and the one I paste from my link - which is real .
            Can you explain again, and take it slow - for a beginner as me?

              Look carefully .... and study study study
              The fake tab is a tab that normally accompanied a skull tab as a pair as already steady from eastern Europe.

                As David says the devil is in the detail ... 2 strands of piping instead of the standard 3, look at the buckram backing, look at the detail of the pips both the tops and the prongs.
