Hi Guys…
Can someone please give me the ballpark value of the single tank destruction badge?
Also, is there a way to tell if the cloth background is real by examining the weave?
Any information will be greatly appreciated!

Found this at an auction site for 125euros, i dont think its worth, but what do you guys think?

Here's two for your viewing pleasure, Strange that the 44 dated jacket is made of better quality wool and fully lined as compared the the 43 one.
These seem to be much more difficult to find than the Officer counterpart.

Hey guys,
I have a chance of buying a ground dug Polish pre-war Cross of Valor.In the description he says the guy he bought it from 7 yrs ago said it possibly belonged to a victim of the Katyn Massacre since he dug it up in Russia but theres no way to confirm this.
Would it be disrespectful to own such a piece?I dont want to feel bad about that.I would make a display honoring the victims.But the real thing that bugs me is what if it was a grave robbed piece?

I hope someone could give me some adive

Thanks cool militaria

Hello
I found a french sword today that appears to be from the 1500s or so. The sword had two screws on the hilt, and there were also what looked like hammer marks on the hilt. I don't have any pictures but would like to know if anyone could tell me if they think this sword is authentic or not. Were screws used in 1500s french swords or is that a giveaway that it is a fake? Any responses will be greatly appreciated.
Thank-You

Well, I finally pick up a Kar98a, I am happy with it but I need some help with some of the marking. It is stamped “ERFURT-1917 and it all so have 1920 (if I am right, 1920 mean that it was kept in service after the war, right?) There are many Imperial marking and all numbers match. But their two marks which I can’t call. On the end of the bolt there are two marks (which I blown up) and a number on the top of the metal butt plate (S.B.15023.)Can anyone ID these marks?-thanks
