    I am no expert on these, but... The chain looks like the chain you flush the toilet with on the old models. Gorgets are normally very nicely made and this is not. To me it looks odd. I have a nice NSDAP gorget and other gorgets i have seen have some very nice chains. Let's see what other members say I might be totally off but i can't see why Todt should have a simple printed gorget. It does not look curved(for fitting the chest) or having felt backing etc.

    Regards, Lars

    Chain is no good if we compare to the one on Manion's. If you take a close look at the eagles feet you will also be able to see a difference. On the right foot. Left when looking at the pic.

    There were fakes of this gorget made in the very early 1970's in England. personally, I do not know the difference between the good and the bad. The chain is definitely bad and I suspect the gorget is also as it shows absolutely no wear. This is not always a good criteria asunissued or unused pieces can look like this. Hopefully, Mr. Saris may chime in on this piece.

    I just talked to my buddy this piece dis not come on the lot of crap he has been offered . He already owns this . He told me he bought this off a vet the vet put the chain on it to hang it on the wall. He also told me when he bought it it was covered in years of smoke.
