I believe these are WW1 German, Bavarian, Austrian or something similar but am way out of my area. Can someone please help identify and approximate value. Thanks,
Harry
Second board, looks unused!
Recieved both of these at the same time. They were at an auction and the auctioneer never auctioned them off. I showed them to him after the auction and advised him I was interested and he told me I could have them. They were wrapped in a piece of newspaper that was in German, I think, and was dated 1920 (Din't keep the paper, whoops!). Any other help would be greatly appreciated.

Harry, both shoulderboards are german and from WW I. The first is the M 15 type with white piping for Infantery units (before that, there was used a colour-system after "Armeekorps" - everyone had its own - and after regiments). The second type was only short in use, without any piping.The small strap was later added, but in the time, I presume.
Inanterieregiment 160: 9.Rheinisches, Standorte Bonn, Dietz, Euskirchen.
Infanterieregiment 60: 7.Brandenburgisches, Standort Weißenburg.
Value: ereyone in Germany not more than 20 Euros, becaus it is only one piece of a pair.
