WHOA, hold on, Phil! That looks like a 100% real and quite rare tab to me. Can we see the back?

I can't say that I know much about this style of tab, though I do believe that they are German made. The embroidery pattern resembles the weave pattern of the flatwire runic tabs.

As already stated an original indeed. Here is one on a model 43 tunic.
