    Hi, I am very sorry but this one is bad. Besides the poor quaility, the date stamp is a big giveaway, these did not come into use until after the outbreak of war.

    We have a thread on the forum about these somewhere.

    Originals of these are very very rare.

    Cheers, Ade.

    Bob Hritz is like Santa Claus. He can reach in to his magic collection bag and pull out an original exampleof any 3rd Reich item being discussed.
