WW2 German Beer Steins authenticity?
Good Day All, I have been following this Forum for a while, but I have just received two beer steins from an old family friend and I was wondering if they were authentic or fakes?
Well, I am no expert but usually a beer stein that is commemorative is usually unit focused. A stein might be for a specific Geschwader in the Luftwaffe or artillery unit in the Heer. I am suspicious but will defer to those with more knowledge. NH
Hello. Welcome to the forum. I agree these would not be for me. The RZM stamp on the bottom is enough alone to keep me away. I wish I could have better news. Best regards.

They forgot the skinhead.. Not for me..
I'd rather be A "RaD Man than a Mad Man "
Agreed - fantasy pieces.........

Welcome to the forum EricL! Sorry for the bad news, but sadly as the member above have noted, a "fantasy" item trying to incorporate almost every SS symbol (as well as WW1 and interwar period) to deceive and take peoples hard earned cash.
Edit: LoL...I just noticed there were two. Doesn't make it any better I'm afraid.
"Please", Thank You" and proper manners appreciated
My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Sorry....2 modern day junk. Definitely not WWII era-and very likely not even German made at all.

The bottom stamps are laughable!
A Stalhelm, Skull , SS Runes , Army eagle , a couple of Iron Crosses and a old boot, and lets not forget the ever-present RZM !
And thats on only One.
They got all the bases covered!
