Thanks for the responses. Also, I am not trying to "wish" the tunic real. I really want to learn from this experience. Collecting TR is a completely different ballgame then SS. I knew I was out of my league when I bid on the tunic , but this estate auction was the 2nd time ever that I had such good luck and I was on a roll. The French 1766 Charleville musket in museum condition went for $1500.00. That's a $7000.00 + musket, so i figured if I made bad decisions on everything else I bid on I was still in the black. The tunic went for $650.00 and came with a sports insignia and a skull and eagle. I also got a police OS cap for $100.00, police bayonet and officer's shako for $700.00...most likely Wiemer, but unsure, so I'll be putting that on the police forum, an Imperial presentation bayonet for $100.00, a 1700 British flintlock pistol, and a 1700 French flintlock musket. I have taken closeups of the tunic insignia as requested and will include the pieces that came with it. The eagle has an RZM and is marked M1/72 under the remaining pin. The skull is marked with an RZM and 499/41. I put the sleeve eagle and Police OS on the Police forum. No one has mentioned the boards...opinions?
