How do you identify World War 2 German uniform badges?

In: Militaria

Answer

Identifying WW2 German badges is fairly easy with the many books and webpages on the subject. The difficult part is determining if they are Originals or Reproducitons. Nazi militaria has gotten so expensive, the it is easy to replicate to a high degree of accuracy.

As an example, there are companies that reproduce many German uniform items such as visor caps that include the label and sweatband details.

If you inherited the collection, it might be very advisable if you document how you obtained the collection. This may convince someone that the items have been in your or your family's possession for a long time----if you intend to sale the items.

A good site to check for World War II information is Lonesentry.com.
