Contrast this with that.....

I should not offer this level of detail since it enables the fakers rather a lot, but the question is current for various reasons.
Note: the upper left item is the stinker counterpoised to nice, rare, seldom scene real examples, one of which is from P. Jenkins.
If I am not mistaken, "Serie 3" appears in tags only found in caps, nicht wahr? There is, of course, more. The tag in the 1936 RZM Herstellungsvorschriften on page 164 is not too dissimilar to the one in post #9.by Friedrich-Berthold

Well done. But what else is wrong here?, do look closely.
Those who identify the wrong things on the wrong tag will get a marzipan replica of the RZM building.
Garments? It's suppose to be kleidungsstücke, not klaidungsstücke?
Here is one of mine
Is it the Firma number? My ability to read Suetterlin is pretty poor. They usually botch the grammar but, from what I can see, this is ok.
If it is "D2/143" then I guess that isn't it. The fake tag lacks sharp edges to the print. I assume this is either an attempt to add age to the tag or just the ink running after being printed. The font of the serial numbers is, of course, incorrect.
Dr.CMH is getting close, but do look at the tag. The Hersteller is " A2/143. " not D2/143.
Oops, they blew it. A2 is incorrect on a tunic, it designates Muetzenfabriken.
You mean Muetzenmacher with A2, as A1 is Muetzenfabriken.

The product of A2/143, which is the correct number for Mueller/Muenchen is thus:

Of course, now I have told the faker how to improve their work, but such also enables the alert and intelligent collector to avoid a trap.
