Opinion on SS 475/39 marked Eagle

Thanks for answers. But I have a question, how the eagle of 1942 year can be not original. It was found in ground, not bought. Here is photoes of other things, that was found with remains of soldiers.
Rise and the inventory of all this things were made with representatives of Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgraberfursorge e.V.
Even on appearance it is visible that there are the rests of fumes and soot.

If you dug this eagle out of the earth along with other SS relics on a WWII battlefield, why even ask the question about the originality of the 475/39 number to begin with?

My thoughts exactly, although just because it has been dug up, does not, in my opinion make it real.

Thanks again. For me there is no question about originality of this eagle because it was dug up, I'm sure it's not fail. On russians forums there were different opinions if this eagle is original or not. Noone in Russia found eagle with such numbers, so I decided to ask on your forum, hoping that maybe someone of you had found such eagle with such numbers. Just wanted to know that this thing is original not only for me, but for all too.

"it was dug up" or you were there and you dug this eagle out... that's a big difference...

Eagle was dug up by my friend. I personally in this hole found two SS buckle (36/38 and 822/38) and three SS Erkennungsmarken.
