Ordensburgen cuffband

[Christian L]

ok, i know, that the cuffband ordensburgen belongs to the nsdap and not to the ss - but its not on a brown band, its on a black band (so it is ss?) or variant? or fake?
sorry - i don't have a pic at the moment - will ask for one and post it.
thanks much christian

Hi Christian,

I believe the silver on black variation was worn prior to the introduction of the silver on brown version in 1937. I think these may have been copied recently, as I've seen quite a few around in the past couple of years which makes me a bit suspicious. hope this info helps.

Cheers,

Arran.
