Rob,
So the problem with this tag is that there was no SS-Totenkopf regiment 10. There was a Totenkopf-Standarte 10, but that is not the correct tag for that unit. So I think this tag is bad.
Rob,
Afraid I also agree with Eike41 on this one. Although someone has gone to some trouble to find a convincing stamp set. The crossing out of the roll number and replacement on the back is also a nice touch. But in essence it's not right.
Im not well up on SS at all so I defer to better judgement . The Original seller states this to me
I bet the dog tag is original dug one. It´s enough info about development of 10th ss t standart: it was renamed ss t inf rgt and finally on its base was formed Horst Wessel division. Good source Andrew Mollow´s Uniforms of the SS Vol.7.
Rob,
Just to follow up with you on this, the seller is half right. The unit was re-named SS infantry regiment 10 from February 1941 to September of the same year. When it was renamed it lost the Totenkopf designation so the T on the above disk is not correct. I doubt it was ever worn if it was in fact a wartime disk, it might be a period mistake.
Cheers
