    I'd say original but if not they have been expertly aged!...

    Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
    Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
    Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
    Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
    We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
    But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

    Such a grouping of closely spaced stammrollen numbers from a single unit (and whole tags also) is alarming to me. If not fakes then I would be concerned that a black digger has uncovered a mass grave and pinched the discs from the bodies.

    These all look original to me. I would say authentic.

    You are right Glenn very unusual to see so many tags from the same company with very close stammroll numbers !

    In my own experience I have found and seen tags that were in groups like this. The Russians regularly exhumed German graves during the war and collected tags for intelligence These tags would be discarded after they were researched. I have seen groups like this 5 to 7 tags of one unit come from the same spot in the ground near where a the fighting was (in my case they were all TK tags). I have also encountered groups of stamped tags in trash pits around German positions and like these no blood group, so I assumed they were unissued and discarded for some reason. That is not to say these did not come from bodies, I am only stating that I have seen similar groupings from other units without bones or bodies.

    All look original to me, very desirable but their existence together like this make me very suspicious.
