Need help! Close Combat Clasp

Hi, I have recently been offered a Close Combat Clasp.

Even though I am not a newbie to the militaria collecting scene I am far from an expert when it comes to spotting a fake 100% of the time.

I need to know if this is the real deal as I would hate to be parting with good money... The guy is asking $550, is that even a good price...?

Cheers.

Need help! War Stained, Burned and Tattered Heer NCO Uniform???

What do you guys think about this. I don't have much doubt that it's an authentic tunic; the collar tabs look good, the material looks correct, but the wreath around the eagle looks a bit thick. I don't know all the variations of the breast eagle so maybe this is ok as well?

Do you think this is the real deal, or someone made this to look tattered? I assume some of you have probably come across tunics that have been war torn, right?

If you saw this at a show, what would you expect to pay? Since I've never come across one that is battered like this one I have no clue of the value.

(FYI - I plan to post a couple shots of the full front and back. As soon as I get them I'll post)

Thanks!
Dzyner
