SS Collar Tab for review

[sshea1]

Hello everyone,

Is it authentic?

Happy Thanksgiving,

Stephen

[Mr.Jerry D]

Sorry, that is not one I would have in my collection.

I found an identical one in a vet lot some months back- an odd tab but IMO an original foreign produced one- probably French or Dutch.

Here it is- not as worn but it is tunic removed, piping is slightly different also

[Mr.Jerry D]

The Dutch / Flemish SS collectors can better speak to the foreign made possibility than I can. They may very well be real.

But I have seen too many 1960s made one with similar style bullion & piping. IMO When it comes time to sell, the "textbook" ones will always sell faster than ones you need to explain.

[John Pic]

I would say it is probably a good original foreign made tab. Italian or French made maybe.

that's true although there are collectors that never sell anything from ther collections, me too

[Waffenreich]

I'm with Jerry on this one (both for that matter).

Yes. Da. Ja. Si. O O.
Like a friend of mine said, "Vanilla is best!"


(by the by, Happy Turkey Day to all my fellow celebrating American SS collectors on this odd American Holiday!!)

Interesting, I knew the Dutch made bullion SS tabs, didn't know Italy made them too...Every thought is appreciated. Thanks everyone!
