    I would say fake, the eagle is different to original.

    Hi harti,

    Absolutely no chance, it's hard to know where to begin with this one as it's all so bad....

    Regards, Ned.

    That IS a good one for sure.

    I am no expert on these, but Ned is right. It is a bad copy. The eagle gives it away.

    Any proof of these ever even existed for real? They just look so unreal for the Gestapo.

    I don't even have to look at the tag itself- that weird squashed-top '3' in the roll number is a very well known fake type used on Erkennungsmarken. Ned is right though, the rest of the details are terrible- definitely fake. You're right too Harti that the price is a giveaway- no chance a real Gestapo disc would be that cheap.
    Ohhhhh- pillage then burn...
