    They all appear to be original, whether to the tunic would be the critical question.

      The eagle is a reproduction. Hard to say for sure if the collar tab is original though. Could be fine but is also close to good repros. So, I wont leave any opinion on the rune tab.
      I am not sure about that litzen on the rank tab. It does not look original. It is a possibility it is a fake. A better photo of the litzen might help.
      A black light test could be valuable as well.

      There seems to be several issues here IMHO.

            OK, post a straight on shot of the eagle and a close-up of the litzen. I still think that's a good embroidered eagle with wear. The litzen is thin but there were several original types.

              I don't see anything wrong with the eagle.

                  I see nothing wrong with the rune tab or the eagle ... the litzen strip I've not seen before ... but that means nothing.

                    The eagle is a sure reproduction, and a quite bad and obvious one. The runes are harder to judge. It does have slight problem with the parallell test. I leave no comment on the rune tab.
                    That litzen is not a war time confirmed pattern, and that dismiss it from being original in my book.

                    The eagle one can easily find in the fakes thread if one does a search.

                    Cheers,
                    Felix

                      How about the leg of the swastika? ( on the bottom left )

                        Thanks for your help!
                        I got these for at least 7 years so the eagle cant be one of the latest copies if that makes sence.

                        Any more comments? I see there are some positive comments as well.

                          The eagle remembers me to this fake one:
