Hey all
Just got this in the mail today and it got me thinking! Do we have a condition rating scale? If not then who is the judge? Obviously this isn't mint but it also isn't poor so were does it fall? Thanks for looking.

Condition rating is quite subjective. What one person would call mint may be considered excellent by another. For me, your administrative star is excellent. A variant cut out from the diamond mounted on a black Totenkopf Thuringen Sturmhauptfuhrer tunic.

Thanks Bob. So I take it from you reply there no rating system like coins. Just subjective to each individual.

How about " worn - tunic removed " .. ?
In coinworld that may equal " circulated " , but in this hobby it is rather considered a bonus by some . Very nice insignia ..

When it comes to SS insignia, I find that lightly worn will always command a premium- there is so much unissued material out there! Very nice original raute, BTW...

Thanks guys. I personal prefer items which were tunic removed over unissued ay day. To me it gives it a personal historical value. Rather than just a historical value which is still great.
