SS Warrant Disk

[martinsuper]

Look, I know 99% of warrant disks are fake. But I obtained this one in a group of authentic SS insignia. So here are the pics, and please let me know if you think its fake (and why?). If you think its real, please give me some info on it? Any idea of worth or similiar item sales price?

It's not even fake, but a complete fantasy piece, and a fairly common one at that.*

Warrant disks were carried by plain clothes policemen, whereas the SS-Heimwehr Danzig was a military formation and would have had no use for such an item.

That alone would be enough.

However, beyond that, the "AMT FÜR SICHERUNGS AUFGABEN" text makes no sense, either; the HWD had no connection to any agency of this name.
Also, Sicherungsaufgaben would be spelled as a single word in German.

Furthermore, the HWD had no Kradschützen unit.

Haha! Perfect!

Well, its no loss to me and I always love an education. So off it goes to the $5 bin.
