I have been looking at this for almost 20 minutes on and off comparing it to others.
This is just my opinion . . . the CT is fine but looking at others I feel that perhaps the Deutschland weave is a bit to loose ???
I feel this kind of work which somebody destroys a numbered CT and reweaves it is atrocious behavior & destruction.
Personally I would leave it a lone

I'm with David on this one. There is something with the embroidery that looks off. I have some doubts, but are not sure to dismiss it all together.

The wire embroidery gauge and type are off for me, and the quality is sub-standard - letter formation is very poor. I would suggest this is a reproduction.

I agree - particularly towards the end of the band where it looks like fatigue started to set in....

[krikke1980]

If a faker puts all his time in faking this text with the goal to make more profit on it, then why would he not make a much rarer ct?
For example a 'SS-Totenkopfverbände' or a 'SS-Heimwehr Danzig' or so??? Just a thought...

Imo this ct is okay. Just of less quality then others.

I agree with logic - why not fake the Elbe - only four letters and then times the value - except that it is probably easier to shift a more common band.

The only way to be 100% certain of this band is to see it in hand - it may be OK but I would not buy on the basis of the photos.

Isn't this the hound's tooth band material?

Here is a bullion Deutschland cufftitle that came from a veteran grouping that Waffenreich acquired. Use it for comparison.

[krikke1980]

Well tgn, its difficult to compare those two ct's because they are both different existing types.

How about the quality of the embroidery.
