    Looking at the link it has several different styles of the same patch?
    So more than one type exists already? One of more looks similar too.

    You see several similar patches for various persons with the highest rank.
    And, once more for good effect, these were hand embroidered, and hence, each one is unique.Very Early Standartenfuhrer Collar Tabs

    The first one (also re-posted above) is a Reichsführer SS collar patch, of which yours is a repro.

    The other ones with the "three oakleaves in a laurel wreath" design are for the Reichsjugendführer (gold/black) and the Stabschef of the SA (gold/red), respectively. They are not directly relevant here, but indirectly as examples for the quality of period hand embroidery.

    Thank you. Would the tabs from his great coat be the same and as detailed?

    What are the signs to tell they are fake?
    I imagine this item was made in Pakistan or in the legion not very good embroiderers across the face of the globe that try to fill the needs
    of the novice collector. We have lots of and lots of senior leader embroidery, and your piece does not at all resemble the authentic item,
    which is very striking in its worksmanship. And these items were costly at the time, and they are costly today when well made.

    We have hundreds and hundreds of images of authentic items, thousands, actually. You can deepen yourself in them, and, of course,
    the key is to see them in real life.

    The senior rank insignia were made in either the model with the metal backing and screw posts, or the textile core as sewn on the tunic.

    There is no such thing as a separate over coat collar insignia.
