Ive had this eagle for a while, bought it as original and always considered it as such. Looking at some examples on here I'm not so sure if its original now. What do you think?

Sorry it is a fake.
Look at the overall shape. It is incorrect in size and the swastika is very badly alinged and is in the wrong position inside the wreath.
Cheers, Ade.
Hi, yes, as Ade said, a bad fake.

Oh dear. Thanks for that guys, the swastika isnt angled or turned but is straight, I always thought it was meant to be like that. It is big at 12cm across the top. Always thought it was meant to be this big. Thanks for the info. Yet another fake to add to my collection of fakes
Not good news but it is always best to know.
The swastika should be orientated like this, seen here on a Heer Officers Pz jacke from my collection.
Cheers, Ade.
Thanks Ade, mine looks nothing like that example! Ive decided to put my bad eagle on a repro tunic I have so at least it will look ok and have some use.
