Help with identifying insignia

[savannahbee]

Hi,

This is a wallet from a German soldier 1945 from around the Gramzow area where the Germans or Russians had a camp / outpost from where they went towards Berlin. (From what my Grandpa told me & I remember...).



I assume the original owner traded these but I would still like to know what these insignias stand for exactly.

Middle insigna is turning blue/green on the other side so I assume some bronze was used.

(Contains coins from different countries as well as some military post / bank receipts which include the name of the original owner).

Thankful for any info

They are from top to bottom:

1.Panzer skull from a collar tab.

2. A rank star/pip for the shoulder boards.

3. A luftwaffe pip from a collar tab.

Hope this helps

And here are some pictures of such items to give you a better picture!

Hi, thanks!

Is there more info about the skull or do all of them just look a little different?

Any idea why these 3? I assume because it is Panzer, Luftwaffe and Heer?

Just random stuff picked up on the battlefield.

Yes there are a variety of different looking panzer skulls depending on when they were made. Here are a few types from my collection
