    SS Latvian Handmade Tabs

    Any opinions on these tabs? I am looking at purchasing these and the seller gave me permission to post them. There are many variations of these handmade Latvian tabs and I think these look good.

        A picture of the reverse might help, but doubt there is any way to be sure about these. Unless there is rock solid provenance regarding these, all is conjecture,
        ( We now have the reverse.) They tell us nothing with certainty.

          Yes there is a paper backing on them. There was another set with paper backing posted on the forum many years ago that I found using the search but the pictures are removed.

            Nah ....
            They are not something I would want.
            Save your money you know it makes sense
            How much are they going for ?
            They could be anything ?

                Interesting to see but definitely not for my collection as well

                  That's a lot of cash for something that has no evidence of originality

                      Since these unofficial insignia were field made it is risky...as risky as Kriegsmarine metal U boat unit cap insignia...
                      If they were not dug up or did not come directly from a vet source I would pass!
                      Here's another set...(different shape too)

                        So I guess what's the major concern? There are a ton of photos showing different variations of handmade metal runes. You guys believe that these aren't one of them or that with handmade stuff it's just a gamble because some believe and some don't?

                            Nevermind I finally got the link to load. Different runes but looks like same base material.
