Need help! WWII Waffen-SS Elite M40 Götz von Berlichingen & M43 Signal Corps Tunics complete with Insignia (Authentic or Fake?) Help?
I have these limited photographs available currently but will get more soon from a private collection in Germany.
These are very pricey and I am still a learner and rookie with SS insignia and tunics, stamps and cuff titles.
I would very much appreciate some help to identify weather these tunics are original.. even at a 50/50 chance, what parts on them are fake or weather these are mint untouched pieces.. weather it all looks good accept for a certain patch like the eagles fro example may have been removed during the War and then replaced with with the wrong eagle maybe.. I have no idea and need professional help to tell me weather these are very possibly original or if they are all completely wrong?
However if these are wrong, please point out what is wrong, what is right, what is possibly correct and what is unknown please.. I need to weigh up the money against the possibility of these being right or wrong.
I thank you for your help my friends!
I am looking to get something like this as a gift to my dad and want something that is most likely or very high chance to be authentic once handled in person and carefully researched and tested. These tunic have also been tested with the black light or blue light and tested positive for 0% nylon or any material that shine or glow.

Thank you for looking and for all the help my friends, all the best!
Will add more pictures hopefully tomorrow when I get a few more that are important.
