Fake one..
The unevenness & pitting on the core are easy markers for this being bad, yes?

good display copy for those that dont know or cant tell its a fake,,,$100-$150 maybe
This is a very rare and extremely expensive combination which would only be on the market mainly from well known and legitimate sources.
The poor photographs and lack of close ups of the arms / beading / detail etc shout Fake straight away

Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader

I would love to know the source of all these fakes that you're posting... A real example would go for tens of thousands of dollars.
As stated above - a bad fake !
( They are 'Oakleaves' with swords and diamonds........... ! )

Hello all, I am new to this forum. I realize this is an old thread. But I have a question regarding the Oak Leaves Sword & Rhinestone in Kaypee80's photo. I read on the historical society of German Military history that in 1941 presentation of the diamonds came as a set which included the more elaborate A-piece as well as a second clasp with rhinestones for everyday wear, the B piece. I have the same clasp as Kaypee80 it looks like it has a mark on the back possibly S2, S3? Appears to have significant age as well. Sorry I don't have photos and the moment.
Does anyone have any info regarding the B piece? It looks to be smaller in the photo shown of the back on the HS website?
