Looking to add this Dachau produced shield.
I would rather have a worn and removed example but they never seem to appear on the market !

Good score, Nick! I can never find one I can afford...! But I do have some Dutch SS in my collection as well...

like it,then I have a job telling a fake from real.
I have seen a worn one for sale some time back. If i find it in my spidersweb of dealers, then i will send you a PM.

Edit: I found it already by a strike of luck, i have sent you an PM.
Found in relatively large quantities , unfortunately NO period pictures of this " Dachau " version in wear have ever surfaced .
Here are the Dutch-made version , and the first type German-made one - both have been documented as period worn items ( picture taken at Dutch Army Museum Delft ) .
Both insignia mentioned , closer to home - both tunic removed ..
Thanks for showing these excellent shields.
There was one for sale on CG site, wish I had seen it first;
The Collector's Guild
