The Third Reich Special Antiquities Collection was a branch of the government of Nazi Germany that sought occult artifacts for Adolf Hitler.
In 1936, Gestapo major Arnold Ernst Toht was sent by the Collection to track down the Headpiece to the Staff of Ra, in the possession of Marion Ravenwood. While Toht was unable to claim the piece, he did receive a partial facsimile of it burned into his hand when he attempted to steal the medallion.[1]
In 1937, Nazi archaeologist Emmerich Voss was sent by the Collection to look into the Great Circle.[2]

Behind the scenes[]
The Third Reich Special Antiquities Collection is a fictional agency. The German government did have interests in the antiquities and occult artifacts, but this name was not used by them.
A similar, historical counterpart–the Ahnenerbe–is also present in Indiana Jones continuity.
