Blanket lined Heer Officer Greatcoat . lighter green collar than usual

[Rob truscott]

Thought i would share a recent acquisition . I bought this coat at £75 , but had to add the shoulder rank straps . Its a fine quality wool . slightly brighter fielgrey ( hope its not Politzei !) with a lighter green than the bottle green collar normally encountered . The back strap has only one button fixing . In all not the norm or is this quite a normal variation ? The dagger strap slit is present inside the blanket lining .

Looks fine to me. Just check it has never had a sleeve eagle.

Cheers, Ade.

Thanks Ade .
No, its not had any insignia . Im tempted to paint the buttons grey as id have expected a blanket lined coat to be for the Front !
