UBB.threads Forums Uniform & Accessories German Military Uniform Forum AFRIKAKORPS CUFFTITLE, HOW CAN I SPOT A FAKE

I am looking for info on how to spot a fake "AFRIKAKORPS" cufftitle and how to identify a real one. This is the green type with a brown border, silver thread edge, and silver lettering spelling AFRIKAKORPS. Not the type with AFRIKA and the palm trees.

Would anyone be able to share pictures as well?

Any information is appreciated.

Thanks,
George

Hi George,
First,welcome to the forum.If you do a search you should come up with the answers your looking for as I'm sure this has been asked before.What I remember for originals, is the shape of the "O" in "KORPS(round in shaped,not a diamond shape) and the center portion of the "R" & "P" in "KORPS"(not the same size).
