Thanks, Glen.
Yes it's a nice item for sure. Bought it from a friend to support his economy, so i will be willing to part with it.

Nice plate. I've got a 7 digit one which I believe is from 1944 on. The 7 digits on yours would probably rule it out as being originally from Stalingrad. The numbers were issued to vehicles in sequence so a particular unit would often have a series. I'm not aware of any research being done on unit allocation, though. You could possibly research it via the Feldpost Nummer?
Cheers, Martin

Thanks a lot Ade
@ Salzburg. I have "limited" knowledge about Feldpost It was dug up in Stalingrad.
Regards, Lars
It does not actually feature a Feldpost number, just a generic "Wehrmacht Heer" red ink stamp to validate the plate.
Cheers, Ade.

Correct. There is no digits present in the red stamp.
Regards, Lars
That's a nice one. I have one that was found in my home town, just after the war.
All the best
Stig Erik
