Nazi cigarette case?

Looks original to me. The wear marks and details of texture, not necessary for a repro. Interestingly it does not have the traditional eagle and wreath usually found with the swastika, as noted in the inside stamp and the 'flower' around the swastika. There is also metal detecting and digging around the old battlefields - see Youtube. So some of this is showing up in German - Baltic - Russian flea markets and even Luger parts from relics that have been cleaned up.
