Germania SS #rd Bullion Tab ?

[vonStubben]

What are the thoughts on this numbered bullion tab?

[Ian Hulley]

May just be me but the runes look very small ?

I have one of these .... I have to admit they don't look the same
Personally I wouldn't be comfortable with this in my collection .....
Take a look at Brent's Antiques .....
That's what I would expect to see in a tab like this

The runes are standard size. This tab looks just like the one shown in Angolias "Cloth Insignia of the SS", page 146. The bullion is tight but in a couple of places you can see the cardboard unterlagen and the 2 is just the same compared to mine. The badge cloth seems correct as well but I have never handled a numbered bullion tab before.

would not make me personal happy as I always would raise a question when I see it. I would go with one where the runes line up way much better and in the standard block or later rune shape style.

I traded an item which I did not have much invested in for this tab and was not expecting it to be real, but I have always wanted a tab like this to add to my Ernst Richard Stubben display seeing his original Regiment was "Germania" and that I have a photo of him where he's wearing his Germania CT.

I will await further thoughts. One good thing is that it doesn't glow. Not that that means anything.

From the research I've done here on the forum & elsewhere I have seen numerous different examples so I do want more opinions.

It is the exact tab! At least I have a nice filler.

My thanks to all.
