Brandon Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 Okay, the numbers are the size (150cm x 250cm) so about 5'x8' The lettering before that is LOH. KR-FL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H82LUZ Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Those numbers if I`m not mistaken have something to do with the regiment of the army they are from,My grandfather donated 2 Flags and a SS Helmet, uniform to the Canadian Armed Forces Museum in Nova Scotia,I agree to sell it or donate,It is a piece of your family`s history as much the rest of the world`s.

fr33k Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 (edited) That is an awesome find. keep it. I googled LOH. KR-FL, and like you said it's worth well over $1000. save it and in 20 years it might be worth 10 times that much to a serious collector. don't let anyone guilt, or bully you into selling it if you don't want to. congratulations on an excellent find <edit> google authentic nazi war flag http://www.google.com/search?um=1&hl=e...sa=N&tab=iw neowin is already the first link that is fast Edited May 30, 2008 by fr33k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sibot Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 Woah! that's an amazing find! Its surely a keeper. You might want to donate it to the Museum, but I'd rather keep it, its an amazing piece of history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
primexx Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 don't sell it, it'll be worth much more for your great great grand children. but if you want to donate it to a museum (about the only people who could properly preserve it), that's ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dead.cell Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I'd keep it. You may want to look into ways of keeping it preserved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metallithrax Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 don't sell it, it'll be worth much more for your great great grand children. I don't get why people say things like this. Why keep it so that someone else gets the benefit from it's value? If it's worth something, get it sold for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodwork Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 I'd keep it. Probably hang it somewhere in my house even. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mosqutus Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 that's pretty cool, donate it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gary7 Subscriber² Posted May 30, 2008 Subscriber² Share Posted May 30, 2008 I would keep it for awhile. The older it gets, the more value it will have. That is unless you are going to donate it to some Museum. I don't know of any Nazi museums though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's worth something, get it sold for yourself. some things are worth more than their cash value, I think he should preserve it. He may end up selling it and regretting it, I certainly would.

Shasoosh Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 ^ or as a pillow-cover to show-off dates. I'd love a flag like that, to hang on the wall. Not because I'm a Nazi but because that 'part' of history is a passion of mine :D I don't care what you are, but that's f*cked up right there.
