I have found this site useful for comparing this sort of thing. Its not all the info but its a start

SS RELICS - WAFFEN-SS TUNICS, SS HEADGEAR, SS POSTERS, SS UNIFORMS, SS INSIGNIA, SS ALLACH PORCELAIN

Many thanks Coogan. I have looked on there and it is useful but it states there are many variations so need an experienced eye. I will keep researching and learning. What is your opinion on the eagle? Many thanks. Martyn

This one is GOOD.

Yours may be also but the image is too blurry to see the quality of the embroidery.

Hi and m many thanks.
I think it is OK. Please could you look at the extra pictures for me and give a second opinion.

Cheers

I think you're safe with this one. I'm not a SS collector but I've looked at a few and the copies stand out with their sloppy appearance.

PS. The one i posted was given the thumbs up on this forum a while back.

Many thanks Dan I really appreciate your reply. Look forward to chatting again.

Here are my two examples to compare. I do notice some differences in the wing tips for one.
I can only suggest that you try to find examples already posted that match your own and see the results, or, wait for our more experienced members to reply.

I do believe that the thread starter eagle is not original. There are some issues with this one.

I don't have an informed opinion , I haven't really started to study them yet.
