I won this wz.19 Polish Army Officer's Collar Tab, could someone tell me if it is 100% genuine, as soon as possible, please. So I know what to tell the seller ?

Do you think the tab's fringe is red (for Engineers) or purple (for Clergy - Priests) ?

Thank you

Justin

After quick research looking at shape of it, if it is original it can only be generals Collar Tab, but it is missing small eagle. I went thru many pictures of officers (maybe 50) and shape of silver material is only on general’s collar tags (similar to yours collar tag).

Mariusz,

Thank you for posting these most interesting pictures from the Kolobrzeg museum. It looks like a first class museum with an impressive collection. Definitely a necessary stop when in Poland!

Regards,
Tony

Nice photo

Its interesting to see his tunic which looks like a wz.36 with a high collar, I remember such a tunic was discussed on a Polish forum I think they came to conclusion that it was a Belgian tunic.

Heres a cap badge that belongs to one of our forum members Dabear, he at first thought it was a AK insignia but in my opinion its a self made Polish insignia from the Polish-Soviet war, and Stephan said that it might be trying to mimic a real regimental badge. Can anyone confirm this ?

Thanks
