Waffen SS Jacket

[Mithril]

Thanks a lot.

Requested price is much more highter than 3600 € ... but I understand perfectly the owner position. Its quite a rare piece originally mounted and coming from a well known and historical unit ...

So wait and see ... email send to the owner ...

Thanks a lot for your knowledge and quick advise.

It’s certainly nice.


I would value it higher than €3600.

If the cuff title and collar tabs are original to the tunic (which I doubt - but that's based on my own experiences not this tunic / because I don't have it in hand) then this would be a very expensive tunic. You can't price it the same as the sum of the parts if it's never been apart. Original tunics are in a different market. There are some advanced collectors here that only deal with and own untouched tunics (I am not one of them that you might ask via PM and they will give you a good ballpark on value an original tunic. The value is hard to set because original tunics almost never come on the market. Not having the original shoulder boards will devalue though.

Hi Mithril

as a put together, I would pay 5+ K euros for this M43. If it was assembled prior to 1945, I doubt I would be able to afford it....since it comes with no provenance (which I'm sure you would have mentioned had it been the case), then you must assume it is a put together.

My tough is that everything is original and WWII mounted on this jacket excepted shoulder boards (missing when discovered). An original pair of WSS artillery shoulder boards has been added by the owner.

What kind of trousers would be the best match with this M43 jacket to evocate the winter 44 during the Bulge battle ?

An nice pair Erbsentarn or normal keilhose
