Agreed, the centers are pretty torn up

So the chinscales would probably be the hardest to find, a set that will fit properly, an officers field badge and officers cords to complete it, and of course some TLC. Cheers, Dennis

A good looking helmet, Brian. Congrats! Dennis

Yes, the fangschnur is no good, and chin scales do not appear correct. It looks like one side is curved and the other is flat, also both have different rosettes. Plus check how the two sides are connected in the center. Just my observation, for what it’s worth.

A period photo would confirm it’s authenticity, but until then, I’m a bit skeptical

Here is an NCO wearing the Ringkragen for “Das Großes Hauptquartier”

Wow, great photos, thanks for sharing! Dennis

Steve, agree, these are a works of art, amazing embroidery !

I don’t think I’ve ever seen this version on a tunic, only the cloth version (or maybe the enamel cross.) Never seen this on a cuirass.

Sadly, someone may buy this atrocity

Good looking pair, Steve, congrats!

Steve, what auction is this in, would love to see a photo of it

Excellent, congrats!

I assume you can rotate the mortarboard to put it in the correct position?

Excellent, a great way to celebrate your birthday, congrats!
