Zollgrenzschutz Münster für Oberfinanzpräsident Westfalen
Category:
€ 95,00
Original WWII-era German identification tag issued to a member of the Zollgrenzschutz (Customs Border Protection), attached to the office of the Oberfinanzpräsident Westfalen in Münster.
This unit served in paramilitary customs enforcement and border control under Nazi Germany.
The Zollgrenzschutz was originally a customs and anti-smuggling force under the German Finance Ministry, but during WWII, it was militarized and performed border protection, security, and intelligence functions, especially in occupied territories. It had overlapping roles with police, SS, and military security services.
This particular tag is rare, as Zollgrenzschutz ID tags are not common, especially with regional designations like Münster and mention of Oberfinanzpräsident.
