This is a very poorly manufactured copy of a set of SS Officers tabs: the runes match no known original example and wouldn't even meet the RZM's specifications. Also, the so called "pips" aren't of the Third Reich era as well the rest of the material used to create these.

Here is an example of a authentic set:

The differences are quite apparent IMO.
Hopefully you haven't purchased the example you posted or at minimum can retain a refund, good luck.
Additionally I'd like to say that though I understand your thread title conveys what exactly you are looking to learn, it would still be nice when asking for free advice to add a small paragraph explaining what you're looking for, some history of the item, and your personal opinion of them. It's just good forum etiquette IMO.
