Hermann Goring Divison Collar Tabs?

[Standartenfuhrer]

I'm really on the fence about these. Bear with me, I'm new to all of this.



The Luftwaffe eagle is not to be confused as a HG one, but I want to confirm it's real as well. I believe it is.

Here's some information. These collar tabs - I purchased for, let's say under $100. It wasn't $20 or anything. They're missing the backs, and I believe the oils, the...pig oils or something like that makes it glow. The front, and all other angles glow. I don't know how much it glows, I didn't test it. I got the words "They might be original " from a collector's store. I believe they are real.

The eagle I traded for, and I also believe is original. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry for me these are bad. The buckram backing is missing which I think may have been done to disguise their origins. Likewise with the edge piping. Glow is these is bad news.

Look at the acorns and the loops to the bottom of the laurel wreath, very poorly done.

Cheers, Ade.

There are original items that do glow, especially if exposed to phosphates and etc...

Regardless, I agree with Ade in that I believe that they are reproductions. What does it for me is the method used to embroider the gulls and the detail on the wreath.
