I always find it suspicious when the best part of a tag is gone ....How does the original white backing the tab is built on in a undisputed original compare to the one shown? The ones on the link are only the fronts? Can a back be shown to compare? Are the backs notshown to keep the fakers from knowing, or are they top secret? whats up with that, as i always show everything, should i be holding back to only show fronts of everything I ever post? thanks this is not meant sarcasticly, but seriously.

The last two tabs are very nice, and thanks for showing them. On others, the work is not as well executed, or the bullion has shifted with wear or template deteroriation. I've owned a number of these over the years, and this piece compares very favorable with them.
Don't let the fable of German workmanship suck you in. Officers sleeve eagles, bullion TK tabs, and certainly sleeve diamonds all were subjected to the same "stringent" quality standards, yet vary considerably. This collar tab is well within standards, and I'm frankly puzzled why such an obviously original tab is being challenged.

Hi Dave,
I just happened upon this thread. That "long bone" 308 on the right is just stunning! It looks to be in perfect shape.
Just look at that mouth full of teeth!
