recently bought, hope it worth the ''effort''
I beleive It is a fake tag i'm afraid , bad font and structure , if you search through the thread on SS EKM you will see an original !!

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

Have to agree with Paul, not a fan of this one...
Thx for the kind aswers. Nice to have it confirmed, and to know that it was a very cheap one..
Here is a real NORD disk
Except for the SS, which is radically different.
I am sure of this particular disks provenance
Very ''tough world'' indeed, this original dogtags world
I'm not an expert at all, and i'm the first to admit that i've just started to built up a documentation regarding all kind of militaria stuff (including basic knowledges about fakes, by reading a lot of material from this incredibly useful forum), and also just started a little collection.
As i mentioned in another thread of mine (related to dogtags boughted from romanian flea markets) all those tags were bargains, so i hardly can considerate that i had material loss. Other tags which i bought were confirmed as originals (but coming from more obscure units). When something from an well-known unit came up, as the SS Nord group, the luck unfortunately changed
In the same lot it was added also this tag.
