Gold Bullion Eagle on Purple Velvet?
I am trying to identify and evaluate a piece from my grandfather's war chest. He was a commanding officer in the U.S. 70th Tank Battalion during WWII.
It is a gold bullion eagle over swastika on purple velvet like material.
Any info is greatly appreciated!

Reichskriegsgericht (judicial) eagle??
That's what I would suspect but let's wait for others as this is not an area I'm that well versed in
"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

Just a guess, something to do with the Clergy?
would it have gone on a hat or a tunic? it has some black attached to the left corner, cut off of something?
My first thought as well, but the color is off.by paulscoot

Compare with the visor in post #2 in this thread.

Volksgerichtshof (people's court) judges robe
Here is an example of a Volksgerichtshof Judge's robe. Obviously not the eagle I am trying to identify.
Does anyone know if judicial uniforms differed between the Volksgerictshof and the Reichsgericht?
remember that the UV, SUNS rays changes colors after exposure to them.
True... but this piece has spent the last 77 or so years in a leather pouch inside of a footlocker.
