    Hard to say with only one photo but looks to be plastic repro.

      If you squeeze each side of the drinking rim, does the cup flex\bend without applying too much pressure? quart_10 - Copy.jpg

        Repro for me: double circles around the marking and I do prefer when letters and date are "face to face" ("feet" of the date face to the "feet" of the marking)

          The look also makes me think it is repro, as originals are a bit shiny. Tic with your nail and see how it sounds...

            Same exact marking on a green cup, from an old reference book. I just can't remember which one!

              I kwow a lot of books with fake stuff.....
              A thread about bakelit cup:
              https://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/for...-drinking-cups

              Anyway, the best way to know for sure, if you have it in hands, it's to weigh it. Plastic cup weighs about 32/33 gr. and original bakelite cup weighs about 52/53 gr.
