It's very possible that this was a private purchase; fur vests and jackets gained wide spread popularity amongst the troops serving on the Eastern front. The ones I have seen are generally from 1941-1942 for the Russian front.

The inside lining does look correct, is the liner made from rabbit/animal fur or a synthetic?

Clothing is not a personal specialty but I hope this helped!

hi and thanks for your reply, i now have it , the fur on collar maybe synthetic but the lining seems to be real animal furs, heres a few pics of coat, thanks again dave
