    Default Fake? Der fuhrer armband, ss collarboard, eagle?

    Hello, One of my friends who is a antique estate "buyer" picked these up from a large estate. I have some doubts as I have not seen this specific pattern on the "Der Fuhrer" armband. They look like very well made counterfeits to me, the white thread does not glow, passes the burn test, and smells/feels extremely old. BUT I would like to be 100% positive that they are not authentic. The collarboard with pips looks pretty believable and the thread used on the SS Collarboard also looks pretty believable. Because they came in a lot from the same estate, and I find the Der Fuhrer Armband very questionable, I question the other items authenticity as well. I would prefer to tell my friend with 100% certainty they are no good, or maybe they are. Maybe you can help us and thank you!

    The way I see it everything is bad and not original.
    You can find lots of originals on this great forum to compare with.

    Thank you Rik, I was almost thinking they may have been from a post war Theatre set (movie) or something.. They were obviously worn on something before, but I was highly doubting the authenticity and needed to ask advice before telling my friend

    A Reenactors Dream Set but certainly 4th Reich.

    Thank you all for the advice! I do believe these are very old reproductions and with your thoughts I now feel 100% confident they are "4th Reich" Thank you again!
