Italian SS sleeve eagle

[NickG]

Finally obtained a good Italian SS sleeve eagle to show!
Was listed on ebay in the Italian section as "Mountain Grenadier Troops" insignia...so few viewers...
Picked it up for $135

I'm pretty pleased with it!

Amazingly the seller had a second scarce Italian gem listed on fleabay, which was also erroneously described as;
"Italian Mountain Grenadier Troops" insignia...

Ultra rare Italian Waffen SS (locally made) metal cap eagle insignia...

That one got a lot more traction and ended at $1136 bucks!!!Way way out of my league...
It's from the same source/lot...so thought I would share it here!
Congrats to the winner if he is a WAF member here!!! Dennis?
