I cannot offer an exact ID, as this is outside my area of expertise, but I can tell you that it is definitely not military:
This is a police-style board of the type as worn by "Meister" ranks, although this particular color combination doesnt't ring any bells for me. It might even be from a post-war state police force.
Many thanks for the information, much appreciated.
On my screen the backing and chevrons appear to be the same color as the center. If this is the case it is for a Oberbootsmann im BGS circa 1956 - 1971
Cheers

I think you got it!
For those interested in a rank insignia chart, see:
Federal Police Force / Bundesgrenzschutz (BGS)
Dienstgrade BGS NVA-GT
Amazing there is data/info on such items I am unaware of. Another question answered.
Nice research HPL !!
