SS Erkennungsmarke Questions

[mapjew]

Hello

I was wondering if this disc was authentic first of all, and secondly if anyone knows if it has the possibility of being Oberbayern due to it being the 1st Regiment (if that's even possible to tell)? I only ask this because some of the discs in the SS Erkennungsmarken pinned thread are Rgt 1 and claim to be prior Oberbayern.

Any information would help, thanks!

As the original cadre from the Standarte Oberbayern was formed early in the war I'm not sure that a late war zinc ekm to the 10th Kompanie could easily be attributed to it.

Thanks for clearing that up. Obviously erkennungsmarken aren't my forte. Like I said, I only suspected that maybe it could be related because it was stated in the SS ekm thread that this one below was attributed to Oberbayern, and it was the closest one I've found to mine.

What were early/pre war ekms made out of?
