What type of East German Border coat is this? And is it authentic?
I bought this from a guy who had a bunch of military stuff and some other coats but this one caught my eye.
Inside the coats inside pocket it says :
NVA P/1 1806 7 m561
I would also like to mention that the sleeves green collar doesn't seem to be moved / sewn into this coat as in there is no stitching on the inside of the sleeve
im just worried its not authentic because with all the photos ive seen of the coats like this they’re either more all grey and this coat is a greenish grey and along with the collar of the coat being a dark grey.
I’ve searched and all I could find was that it couldve been a Cold War-era East German Border Troops winter greatcoat but those in the photos don’t have the green sleeve collar.
if you have any info that would be appreciate!!
(if yall need any more photos I would be happy to share some more)
