Yay or Nay German Officers WW2 Greatcoat

[tailor marc]

It would look great in the collection but something doesnt feel right about it....
German Officers WW2 Greatcoat (Wehrmacht) | Other Antiques, Art & Collectables | Gumtree Australia Rockingham Area - Secret Harbour | 1073922733


Txt from the AD...
"This greatcoat was captured in 1944 from German Nazi Army Officers trying to cross into the Balkans in 1944 & was put into a warehouse & recently rediscovered.
It is original WW2 & was a design of 13 various original styles.
The size will be answered to any interested person wanting to know more information.
More pictures available on request.
The price is negotiable.
Once it's gone it's gone."

This does not really belong in the discussions section so I have moved your thread to the Heer, Luftwaffe and Kreigsmarine Uniforms Forum.

Beautiful story....perhaps found on a flea market, one old civil coat ?

[Wagriff]

No shoulder straps and no view of the interior to see if there is a dagger hanger. I doubt it is military.

[harryamb2]

not military, civilian nice coat overpriced by $600.

Thanks for the info guys, will pass on this one

Would be nice to have the rainy days.

Btw, a sign of the seller knows it is a post45 object, or civilian coat, is the line "The price is negotiable."

Only missing "Only for you my freind"

As far as know i thought Original Prym press studs were post war used only and the wartime ones only had Prym on the them

Story is also bogus. I figure by 1944 most 'Nazi' Officers would be trying to get OUT of the Balkans, not escape INTO the Balkans.
