Cuff title mystery!

I am considering an infantry tunic that has an original attached krim shield on the sleeve. The description also states that this used to have a cufftitle but it has been removed. So do you guys have any idea what that cuff title could have been? Now keep in mind he was an infantry soldier, it does not say he was a panzer grenadier. He was not SS, I tried to research all the divisions who fought in the Crimea but none of the infantry divisions listed had cuff titles. Any ideas????

how rare

How rare were double decal M40’s . Were double decal m40’s only on low batch number shells or do batch numbers not work like that i.e low numbers being early shells and the higher the number the later the shell.

Imperial/ TR Feldgendarmerie Gorgets

Thought it might be of interest to show a comparison of the constructions.
(Before the war the Imperial Gorgets had a silvered, polished finish with the eagles and details gilded. This was changed to grey painted steel during the war)

Note that the prong for the loose end of the chain is on the face of the Imperial Gorget, not the reverse.
