1933 NSDAP Stabsleiter cloth insignia value

[jeffhan373]

Can anyone give me an estimated value for a 1933 cloth diamond insignia for an NSDAP Stabsleiter? This is described and shown in wear in Angolia's book on cloth insignia of the NSDAP and SA, pp. 72-73. It was worn on the left arm, above the swastika armband.

This isn't my thing, but the piece looks completely legitimate. Guy who has it has no idea what it is, and has no interest in militaria - it's a proverbial desk drawer item he found in his father's desk while cleaning out the house. Given its appearance, and its provenance, I can't see it as a fake....and I'd like to get him a fair price.

Thanks.

You'd really need to have photographs for any realistic evaluation... many fakes do exist and have been around for 40 years or so....

Generally speaking...and assuming it's real.... value would be $75./120. (US) range FULL RETAIL .... they aren't that scarce. That's assuming alot, of course.
