Good evening,

I picked this up with a few other items recently and would like to get some expert opinions. I perused the "Fakes" threads, but I am overwhelmed at the excessive amount of fakes out there. So, I figured it best to list it here. Let me know if you need additional photos. Thank you.

Description: I am looking to purchase original Reichsnahrstand, RHEINLAND, hauptabteilung II award medals. Specifically, those medals awarded for “Schweinezucht, Bienenzucht, Gemusebau, Obstbau, 1936 provinzial pferde ausstellung” and any “GESPANN-PARADE” medals (except 1935). If anyone has any of these and are willing to part with them for a good price please let me know. Thank you…Daryl (daryl_cockram@hotmail.com)

Hello forum members. Wondering if this cap looks to be authentic or a fake. It is listed as a Heer Cavalry Officer’s Cap and is apparently made by "Kurt Seilor". Appears not to have an SS skull but rather one used by the old cavalry units and "Death’s Head" Hussars. Not being an expert, any help and opinions would be very appreciated. Thank you in advance as always. Regards,

-Jamie

I have a US canteen pouch (Baker Lockwood 1941) with a lot of markings.

One marking is still a mystery to me: AL-050. Stamped on the "ear" and the bottom.
It looks like a laundry number, but it has three numbers instead of four. And two letters instead of one. What kind of number is it? I don’t think it has a connection with the rest of the markings, as the service number (3?09050?) does not correspond with the name E. GLASSER

I am learning as much as I can but would really appreciate some help in giving this single item a Thumbs Up! or Thumbs Down! The dealer says it does not glow under UV. The silver threads look good to me. The internal backing material looks good to me. But the totenkopf has three attach prongs (seems like all visor cap style have 2) coming thru on the backside and I have not been able to find a decent reference match on the frontal features either.

Would greatly appreciate some critical evaluation with comments so I can climb the learning curve some more.
