Superb - and fully matching! - pair of 'cyphered'- (and early- ie. pre-war-period) WH (Kriegsmarine) EM-type shoulderstraps as constructed from HBT-like material as was intended for usage by a: 'Soldat des Küsten-Artillerie-Abteilungs 6'

This is a truly very attractive - fully matching and actually rarely encountered! - neatly 'cyphered'- (and I deem fairly early- (ie. pre-) war-period pattern pair of enlisted-mens'-type shoulderstraps as was specifically intended for usage on the field-grey coloured navy-style tunics by a: 'Soldat des Küsten-Artillerie-Abteilungs 6' (or: simple soldier who served within the naval coastal-artillery unit, numbered: '6') and that comes in an overall very nice- (and I deem just minimally used- ie. worn-), condition. The straps - which are fully 'text-book' in all facets - measure approximately 10,4 cms. in length (and have a width of 5,5 cms. as usually seen) have the greenish-coloured- and/or linnen- (ie. HBT-like material-) based 'upperdecks' and come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues. The straps show the neat interwoven so-called: 'winged-shell-anchor'- and/or: '6'-cyphers or: 'Ziffern' (which are executed in golden-yellow-coloured linnen) denoting the rank of simple: 'Soldat o. Maat'. The straps - shows some minimal age, wear and/or staining but are totally void of any damage (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that ALL 'Küstenartillerie' insignia-pieces are actually quite hard to encounter: those 'cyphered' ie. in HBT-material executed examples even more so, which grades them easily as 'rare'. Simply a very attractive 'cyphered', naval EM-type shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for usage on the field-grey-coloured attire and just the first such rare pair I ever had on offer!
