Aluminium-based, WH (Heeres) ie. 'Infanterie'-related ID-disc bearing the clearly stamped unit-designation that simply reads: 'St./I.Ers.- Btl. 87' and that comes as issued- and/or worn

This is an attractive example of a silverish-coloured- and/or typical aluminium-based WH (Heeres) ie. 'Infanterie'-related ID-disc (ie. 'Erkennungsmarke') that is bearing the clearly stamped unit-designation that simply reads: 'St./I.Ers.- Btl. 87' (and as such being a disc that was - I deem - intended for a soldier or NCO who served within the: root- (ie. 'Stamm'-) company of the 'Infanterie' replacement- (ie. 'Ersatz') 'Bataillon', numbered: '87') and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly used ie. worn-), condition. The attractive disc comes in overall nice condition (and is executed in an attractive letter-type!) and shows the clear evidence of having been used ie. worn (it shows somewhat 'torn-out'-holes as can be seen on the pictures). The disc also shows the stamped bearers'-blood-group-type (type '0') something that is more often but not always observed. The disc was never cleaned nor polished (it is still a bit stained and/or dirty). The disc originates from a larger ID-disc collection that was compiled over many years. Simply an attractive and honest WH (Heeres) 'Infanterie-Truppen'-related ID-disc that is with certainty accordingly priced!

Romanian medal: 'Kreuzzug gegen den Kommunismus' (or in Romanian language: 'Medalia - Crusiada Impotriva Communismului') that comes mounted onto its (neatly pre-confectioned-) ribbon and that came stored in its period pouch as issued

These attractive Romanian medals - which were issued in order to commemorate the crusade against communism (or: 'Kreuzzug gegen den Kommunismus') were instituted on 1st April 1942 and are often found among German medal-groups since it was liberally bestowed on Romania's allies. The award on offer here is a truly very detailed example and has a neat albeit minimally tarnished age-patina: it comes mounted onto its original (specifically folded- ie. neatly pre-confectioned) ribbon as issued and came stored in its (typical) pinkish-red-coloured- and/or: 'Zellstoff'-based pouch. The scarcely seen pouch - which shows some obvious wear, age and/or staining - is complete and shows the imprinted text: 'Miniterul Apararu Nationale - S.S.I.A. - Medalia - Crusiada Impotriva Communismului' on its front (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a neat - and complete! - medal-set from one of Germanys allies that originates from a German private household and that was with certainty awarded to a German soldier or NCO: hard to find a nicer preserved example for a more interesting price!

Neat, WWII-period WH (Kriegsmarine) medical-item: a glass-based 'fever-thermometer' being a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' example that is nicely marked 'Kriegsmarine' and that comes stored in its period, carton-based 'tube'

This is an attractive, typical WWII-period WH (Kriegsmarine) medical-item: a glass-based 'fever-thermometer' being a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' example that is nicely marked 'Kriegsmarine' and that comes stored in its period, carton-based 'tube' as found. These attractive - albeit truly very fragile! - thermometers saw wide-spread usage in all sorts of WH medical-cases and/or pouches and are actually not that easy to encounter. The neat piece on offer here is neatly marked with the designation 'Kriegsmarine': moreover, is it additionally 'engraved' with a makers'-designation (ie. 'D.R.2') and date: '1942' (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was simply never issued- nor used and can easily graded: 'virtually mint-/unissued'. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a neat (naval) medical equipment-item that can be used for almost any WH-equipment set-up or display!

Attractive - and fully matching! - WH (Heeres) early- (ie. mid-war-) period, 'M43'-pattern, 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstraps as was intended for a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied des Artillerie-Beobachtung-Abteilungs 5'

This is an attractive - and fully matching! - pair of WH (Heeres) early- (ie. mid-war-) period- ie. 'M43'-pattern and neatly 'cyphered', NCO-type shoulderstraps as piped in the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured branchcolour as was intended for - and moderately used by! - a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied des Artillerie-Beobachtung-Abteilungs 5' (or: sergeant who served who served within the artillery-observers unit, numbered: '5') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used ie. worn-), condition. The shoulderstraps - which measure approximately 11,1 cms. in length - have the 'standard-type' and/or field-grey-coloured, smooth-woolen-based 'upperdecks' and have the bright-red- (ie. 'hochroter'-) coloured - and/or: woolen-type piping attached. The straps - which come naturally mounted onto their functional tongues - show as stated above some regular usage and/or wear (some staining and dust is visible and/or present). The straps show the silverish-grey-coloured- (ie. 'non-sub-dued'-pattern-) 'Heeres'-NCO-braid and/or single- ('Buntmetall'-based) pip attached denoting the NCOs-rank of: 'Feldwebel'. Next to this, do the straps show a pair of (larger-sized, fully matching and neatly silvered, zinc- ie. 'Feinzink'-based- and/or Gothic-styled) so-called: 'B'-cyphers- and equally styled and smaller-sized: '4'-cyphers ie. numerals (or: 'Ziffern'), attached. All six devices are nicely preserved and do show some regular age- ie. tarnish. It should be noted that all 'cyphered'-pattern shoulderstraps can be easily regarded 'fairly scarce'. Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that the NCO who wore this pair was once an: Unteroffizier: something that can easily be deducted by the presence of a later-added- and horizontally-mounted piece of NCO-braid. This particular pair originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderstrap-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. In any case an attractive and/or early- (ie. mid-) war-period and neatly 'cyphered' 'Heeres'-related shoulderstrap-pair that was intended for a: 'Feldwebel u. Mitglied des Artillerie-Beobachtung-Abteilungs 5'!

Attractive, 'Waffen-SS' EM- (ie. NCO-) pattern collar-tab (ie. 'Kragenspiegel für Mannschaften u. Unterführer der Waffen-SS') as was executed in so-called: 'BeVo'-weave-style and that comes in a never used- (ie. 'virtually mint'-), condition

The very attractive collar-tab is of the 'standard-issue'-pattern that was intended for usage by the various Waffen-SS enlisted-men (and/or NCOs) throughout the war and that comes in a truly never used- nor worn- ie. 'virtually mint', condition. The tab shows the neat white-coloured- and/or: typical 'buckram'-based 'backing' attached (as can be seen on the pictures). As stated above, has the piece never been used and just shows some minimal staining simply caused by decades of storage (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these attractive, 'BeVo'-weave-pattern Waffen-SS-type collar-tabs can nowadays easily be graded 'fairly scarce' even more so when they come in such a wonderful and 'virtually mint', condition. Simply an attractive example that simply cannot be upgraded and that is accordingly priced!

Very interesting - and actually only once before seen! - 4-pieced 'N.S.R.K.B.'- (ie. 'Nationalsocialistischer Reichskriegerbund'-) related (naval) grouping comprising of four - partly unique! - 'N.S.R.K.B.'-eagle-devices

This is a truly attractive - and in this untouched and complete condition most certainly not that easily found! - 4-pieced, 'N.S.R.K.B.'- (ie. 'Nationalsocialistischer Reichskriegerbund'-) ie. WWI-veteran-association naval- ie. 'Reichsmarine' (?) related 'grouping' (ie. 'Mustertafel') comprising of four differently-styled, so-called: 'N.S.R.K.B.'-eagle-devices and that comes in an overall wonderful- (and truly never used- nor tunic- (ie. cap-) attached-), condition. The 'grouping' comes period-mounted onto a greyish-coloured- and carton-based- (and 12 x 10 cms. sized) 'card' that shows a neat makers'-designation 'sticker' glued onto its back (that reads: '1887-1937 - 50 Jahre - J.C. Gante jun. - Berlin' as can be seen on the pictures). The card holds respectively a tiny member-ship lapel-pin, a breast-eagle and visor-cap-eagle (which all three come mounted onto their period pin- ie. needle set-up and that retain a fully preserved, bright golden-toned surface). Moreover, do all three show a fully preserved black-coloured (ie. enamelled) iron-cross-symbol attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The fourth eagle-device (ie. breast-eagle) is presumably the rarest of the four: this is a (only once before seen !) 'N.S.R.K.B.'-breast-eagle-device that is neatly 'BeVo'-like woven in multi-coloured thread (ie. 'braid'): it comes mounted onto a (very unusually seen!) copper-toned 'mounting-device' on its back (as can be seen on the pictures). The 4-pieced set was recently uncovered at a German private-household and was stored as such for decades: it was never before part of a collection. Simply a very interesting and most certainly rarely found 'N.S.R.K.B.'-related eagle-device-grouping that is I deem accordingly priced!

Natural-coloured- and/or genuine leather-based etui as was intended to store a Wehrmacht ID-disc (ie. 'Tragetasche für Erkennungsmarke') and that shows a period-inked name on its inside (that reads: 'Peter Christian')

This is an attractive, natural-coloured- and/or genuine leather-based etui as was intended to store a Wehrmacht ID-disc (ie. 'Tragetasche für Erkennungsmarke') that comes as issued and/or worn. The pouch does show some moderate aging and wear (and is just a tiny bit stained) but is nevertheless still souple and/or fully functional: it originated from a private-household in Germany where it was recently uncovered. The piece still comes with its period (typical linnen-based) carrying-cord firmly attached. Of additional interest is, moreover, the fact that it shows a period-inked name on its inside (that reads: 'Peter Christian' as can be seen on the pictures. Simply an attractive WH personal-equipment-item that is I deem accordingly priced!

Superb, HJ- (ie. 'Hitlerjugend'-) so-called: 'Leistungsabzeichen in Silber' being a maker- (ie. 'RzM M1/101'-) marked example with the unique bearers'-number: '141097' and that came stored in its (equally serial-numbered!) pouch

This is a truly attractive - and I deem hardly ie. presumably never used nor worn! - example of a HJ- (ie. 'Hitlerjugend'-) so-called: 'Leistungsabzeichen in Silber' being a neatly maker- (ie. 'RzM M1/101'-) marked example that is bearing the unique bearers'-number: '141097' and that came stored in its (equally serial-numbered!) 'Zellstoff'-based pouch as issued and/or recently found. The very attractive sports'-badge - which is executed in so-called: 'Cupal'-based metal - comes naturally mounted onto its functional (and fully unaltered!) pin- ie. catch set-up and retains a neat (and fully undamaged) bright silverish-grey-coloured finish (which is just a bit tarnished and/or slightly stained - as can be seen on the pictures). The detail on this youth-related item is simply stunning and pronounced. Of interest is, moreover, the fact that this specimen was found together with its (typical, smaller-sized- and/or: 'Zellstoff'-based) pouch of issue that shows the printed text: 'HJ Leistungsabzeichen in Silber' and additional blue-inked numeral that reads: '141097' (which is identical to the number on the badge something that is truly unusally found as can be seen on the pictures). Simply a very attractive - and fully complete and matching! - example of this neat 'HJ/BDM'-related sports'-proficiency-award that is - I deem - priced according to its obvious scarcity and/or desirability!

Attractive, WWI-period: 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron cross second class) that comes mounted onto its (period) confectioned- and/or: nicely folded ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt')

This is an attractive example of a just moderately used- and worn example of a WWI-period: ' WWI-period 'Eisernes Kreuz II. Klasse' (or: iron cross second class) and that comes as issued, minimally worn and/or recently found. The detail on this example is nicely preserved: it has - I deem - never been cleaned nor polished and has an attractive and/or minimally tarnished age-patina (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross came 'mounted' onto its (period) confectioned- ie. nicely folded ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt'). The IC truly retains nice details but is - I deem - void of a makers'-designation: it has a nicely preserved, black-finished (ie. somewhat 'satin-like'- ie. 'shiny-style'-) core and is void of any damage or paint-loss and has been truly nicely preserved. The piece is just a tiny bit dusty and/or stained but was never cleaned nor polished (as can be seen on the pictures). The ribbon shows only minimal usage and/or staining. Simply a neat WWI-period, 'EKII. Klasse' that is with certainty accordingly priced!

Neat, silver-toned, Bulgarian WWII-period military-cross: 'For Bravery' (or: in Bulgarian- ie. Cyrilic language: 'Ordena Za Hrabrost') being an example of the 3rd Class and that comes stored in its period-pouch as issued

These neat, bright-silver-toned, Bulgarian WWII-period military-crosses: 'For Bravery' (or in Bulgarian language: 'Ordena Za Hrabrost') were awarded to lower-rank soldiers and/or NCOs for exceptional actions in the face of remarkable danger. The example on offer here, is (I deem) a specimen of the third class of this award (something that can easily be deducted from both the silver-toned finish as as well as the typically confectioned ribbon). The piece came mounted onto its nicely confectioned- (ie. pre-folded-) piece of period ribbon (ie. 'Bandabschnitt') and was nicely preserved: it was never polished nor cleaned and is still a tiny bit dirty but very detailed. It retains a neat, somewhat tarnised silver-toned finish (as can be seen on the pictures). The award came stored in its period, beige-coloured- and/or carton-based pouch (which is actually not that commonly found). The attractive set was recently found at a private-household and was uncovered amongst some other belongings of a German NCO. Simply a very decorative Bulgarian, WWII-period military-cross of the third class: 'For Bravery' that is with certainty accordingly priced!

Scarcely found, HJ (ie. 'Hitlerjugend') enamelled pin (ie.: 'Raute') as was specifically intended for insertion into the 'HJ-Fahrtenmesser' being a bright-red-coloured example showing an: 'RzM - M1/142'-makers'-designation on its back

The tiny badge - which is typically bright-red-coloured and is somewhat 'darkened' caused by normal age ie. wear - is a detailed example showing an: 'RzM - M1/142'-makers'-designation on its back (as can be noticed on the pictures). The tiny lapel-pin was never cleaned (as stated is some minimally darkened age-patina present and/or visible) but the pin truly shows no enamel damage whatsoever (it was most certainly never cleaned nor polished). This is the version that was specifically produced ie. intended for usage within the 'HJ-Fahrtenmesser' (ie. HJ-daggers) having two (flat-shaped- and copper-toned) pins attached (which are naturally present and/or fully functional) instead of having a regular 'pin- ie. catch set-up. Simply an attractive and very desirable example that will be hard to be upgraded!

The attractive lapel-pin (ie. 'Parteiabzeichen') - which has been moderately used ie. worn - has a nicely preserved age-patina and has most certainly never been cleaned nor polished: it is showing just minimal wear but is totally void of any real (enamel-) damage (as can be clearly seen on the pictures): just some regular wear ie. minimal scratches are present and noticable.

Attractive - and actually scarcely encountered! - RAD- (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst'-) related so-called: 'Traditions-Mützenabzeichen' as was specifically intended for an RAD-staffmember within the: 'Arbeitsgau XXX' (= Bayern-Hochland - Ostmark)

This is an attractive - and actually scarcely encountered! - multi-colouerd enamelled, so-called: RAD- (ie. 'Reichsarbeitsdienst'-) related: 'Traditions-Mützenabzeichen' depicting the famous Edelweiss-flower as was specifically intended for an RAD-staffmember who served within the: 'Arbeitsgau XXX' (= Bayern-Hochland - Ostmark) and that comes in an overall very nicely preserved- and/or fully undamaged, condition. The nicely enamelled: 'Traditions-Mützenabzeichen o. Abzeichen des Arbeitsgaues XXX' comes in an overall very nicely preserved- and fully undamaged, condition. The metal badge (executed in colourfull enamel on a copper-based background as to be expected) depicts the famous Edelweiss-flower and comes without a pin-/pin-catch set-up: it shows four (period) holes and is of the pattern that was sewn onto the cap. The piece is totally void of a makers'-designation nor 'Ges.Gesch.'-patent-pending-marking (as can be seen on the pictures). A similar badge is also figured in the Heering-Hüsken lapel-pin-catalogue, wherein it is given a unique reference-number (3805JL) and an estimated value of: 180 Eu. The badge on offer here was I deem never cleaned nor polished: it still retains a very nice- and/or minimally tarnished age-patina and is totally void of any enamel-damage. Simply a very attractive - and with certainty not that often encountered! - (semi-official) RAD-'Traditions-Mützenabzeichen' that is priced according to its comparative rarity and/or desirability!

Superb, WH (Heeres, Luftwaffe etc.) cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') entitled: 'Afrika' (being an example that as executed in so-called: smooth-type, camel-hair and that comes in a presumably issued- albeit never used- ie. 'virtually mint' condition

This is a truly very attractive - and/or fully 'textbook'! - example of a WH (Heeres, Luftwaffe etc.) cuff-title (ie. 'Ärmelstreifen') entitled: 'Afrika' being an example that as executed in typical, light-brown-coloured so-called: smooth-type, camel-hair and that comes in a presumably issued- (albeit most certainly never used- ie. still 'virtually mint', condition. The cuff-title comes in a full-length- ie. non-shortened condition (and measures approximately 44 cms. as to be expected). Both ends show some minimal fraying (as can be seen on the pictures). The cuff-title just shows some minimal age ie. staining caused by decades of storage and handling over the years (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be stated that these 'Afrika'-cuff-titles are not to be regarded as commemorative cuff-titles (such as the 'Afrikakorps'-cuff-title) but were regarded as 'official awards' that needed official recognition (and entries in both 'Soldbuch' and/or 'Wehrpass'). This example was recently found at a German private-household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a very attractive and naturally genuine, period example that will be impossible to be upgraded and that is priced according to its truly wonderful condition!

Luxuriously-styled, 'Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. Klasse ohne Schwertern' (being an attractive albeit non-maker-marked specimen that is executed in typical, silverish-coloured metal (ie. 'Buntmetall')

The attractive - and I deem quite early- (ie. mid-) war-period - piece is executed in typical silver-coloured metal (ie. 'Buntmetall') and comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately worn- ie. - I deem - most certainly used-), condition. The naturally non-magnetic- and/or non-vaulted cross shows some blackened- (ie. somewhat tarnished) age-patina but was most certainly never cleaned nor polished: it retains, moreover, most (ie. all!) of its typical silverish-coloured finish (as can be seen on the pictures). The cross comes naturally mounted on its functional (somewhat thicker, straight-shaped) pin- and/or: period catch (ie. catch-set-up) which are both present and fully unaltered (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece - which is totally void of a makers'-designation - might be a piece that was produced by the Austrian maker- (ie. 'Hersteller') named: 'Karl Gschiermeister' as was based in the town of Wien (ie. Vienna). It comes as recently found and/or stored for decades: it was truly never cleaned and is just a tiny bit stained ie. dirty but retains most of its (off-factory) polished 'highlighted areas' (as can be seen on the pictures). I deem that the KvK 1st class award is a bit underestimated by the collectors' community: they can almost be graded equally as the IC 1st class. Simply an attractive and fairly luxuriously-executed example of a: 'KvK 1. Klasse ohne Schwertern' that that is - I deem - accordingly priced!

Neat - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) 'cyphered', officers'-type shoulderboard (as piped in the golden-yellow-coloured branchcolour) as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'Oberleutnant eines Kavallerie-Aufklärungs-Regiments'

This is a neat - albeit regrettably single! - WH (Heeres) 'cyphered', officers'-type shoulderboard as piped in the golden-yellow- (ie. . 'goldgelbener'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by an: 'Oberleutnant eines Kavallerie-Aufklärungs-Regiments' (or: lieutnant first-class who served within a cavalry-related, reconnaisance-unit ie. regiment) and that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. clearly tunic-removed-), condition. The board - which is executed in the 'smooth'-like- and/or golden-yellow-coloured wool (aka 'moleskin'-wool) - measures approximately 10 cms. in length and has a truly silver-greyish-coloured (ie. somewhat 'sub-dued') 'upperdeck'. The board never had a tongue attached and was clearly used as a board of the 'sew-in'-type (as can be seen on the pictures). The board shows a (Gothic, styled, smaller-sized, bright golden-toned- and/or: 'Buntmetall'-based) so-called: 'A'-cypher- and (equally golden-toned and regular-sized) pip period-attached: both devices are somewhat tarnished and/or stained but are still very nice and/or pronounced (as can be seen on the pictures). These 'standard'-model, officers'-type 'Kavallerie-Aufklärungs'-pattern shoulderboards could be used with the regular-style 'Heeres'-officers-tunics but could naturally also be worn on the specific black-woolen, 'Panzer'-type 'wrap-around'-tunics. This particular example originated from a larger cloth- ie. shoulderboard-collection I recently acquired for the web-site. Simply an attractive, officers'-type, neatly 'cyphered' shoulderboard that belonged to an: 'Oberleutnant eines Kavallerie-Aufklärungs-Regiments': too bad that it is only a single specimen!

WH (Heeres): 'DAK' (ie. 'Deutsches Afrikakorps') - I deem - 'Buntmetall'-based so-called: 'pith-helmet' (eagle-) shield, being a non-maker-marked and never used example, retaining all its three, originally mounted prongs

This is an attractive WH (Heeres) tropical- (ie.

The - very detailed and/or pronounced - piece retains its three original pins which are all coming in a never bent (and still functiona)l, condition. The black-painted area retains almost all of its original (black-toned) colour (as can be seen on the pictures). Actually, are these genuine pith-helmet shields - having all their original and/or undamaged prongs in place - not that easily encountered: even more so when they are executed in bright and somewhat frosted, 'Buntmetall'-based metal. Simply a nice opportunity to acquire an original 'DAK' (ie. 'Afrikakorps') so-called 'pith-helmet'-shield for a competitive price!

Superb - and actually rarely seen! - officers'-pattern, RLB (or: 'Reichsluftschutzbund') breast-badge depicting the typical 'RLB'-logo (being a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' example as executed in the neat 'BeVo'-weave, 'flat-wire'-pattern)

The piece comes as 'straightly cut-off the role' and comes of course in a totally non-confectioned condition (it does show some minimal storage-age ie. some tiny tears which are only present in the backing: the device itself is naturally totally undamaged as can be seen on the pictures). These attractive RLB-breast-badges (which are quite large-sized and have an approximate 'wingspan' of 13,5 cms.) were worn on the bluish-grey-coloured, LW-pattern tunics (such as the 'LW-Fliegerblusen') and replaced the normally encountered LW-breasteagle. This is only the second such attractive example I did ever encounter.

Attractive example of a DRK (ie. 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz' or German Red Cross) nurses'-badge as was intended for a: 'Helferin' being a non-maker-marked example that comes in a fully untouched condition

The attractive badge is - I deem - made-out of silver-coloured zinc-based metal (ie.

The badge is a non-maker-marked example has - I deem - only minimally worn: it has never been cleaned nor polished (and is still a tiny bit stained and/or dirty) and comes of course mounted onto its functional- and/or unaltered pin- ie. pin/catch (-set-up). These badges were also worn by the Germanic volunteers. This example is void of a makers-designation but shows a clear 'Ges.Gesch.'-patent-pending- (and star-) marking (as can be seen on the pictures). A similar example is also figured in the Heering-Hüsken lapel-pin-catalogue wherein it is given the unique reference-number: 5613XA and wherein it is given an estimated value of 40 Eu. Simply an attractive DRK (ie. 'Deutsches Rotes Kreuz' or German Red Cross) so-called: 'Helferin'-badge that is accordingly priced!

The magnetic cross has an overall nice (somewhat darkened- and/or minimally stained) age-patina but still retains truly great detail: the black-coloured core just shows two tiny corrosion-spots (as can be seen on the pictures) but is totally void of any paint-damage within the swastika-area: it is just but nicely preserved: it just shows a somewhat stained surface (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece also retains most of its so-called: 'hochpolierte Kanten' (or: polished sides) and is as stated above just tarnished by age. The (flute-shaped) pin and catch (ie. set-up) are naturally unaltered and/or fully functional. The cross - which is a non- vaulted example as more often - is as stated above a neatly maker-marked example: it is shows the makers'-designation '4' on the outside of the pin (as can be seen on the pictures). Simply an attractive - and I deem mid-war-period! - IC1 by the maker: 'Steinhauer & Lück' (ie. 'Hersteller 4') that was never before in a collection and that is I deem accordingly priced!

Zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based, 'Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen in Silber' (or silver IAB) being a clearly maker- (ie. 'FZZ'-) marked example as being produced by the: 'Fritz Zimmermann'-company and that comes in a moderately used- ie. worn, condition

This particular example - which is as stated above nicely maker- (ie. 'FZZ'-) marked on its back as to be expected - is a typical piece that was with certainty produced by the: 'Fritz Zimmermann'-company based in the town of Stuttgart. The badge - which has still truly pronounced detail - comes naturally mounted onto its functional and/or unaltered- catch, pin and/or hinge as to be expected (as can be seen on the pictures). The clearly issued (and moderately worn) piece is executed in silver-greyish-coloured zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based metal. The piece has lost most of its silver-toned finish (as is more often the case with these particular IABs) and has maintained an attractive silver-grey-coloured finish and has a typical zinc-based age-patina. The badge is just a tiny bit stained ie. dirty but was never cleaned nor polished. The pronounced detail is, therefore, still very nicely preserved. The pin and/or catch (ie. set-up-) are of course fully functional and/or present (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these attractive-, 'FZZ'-marked-, 'Infanterie-Sturmabzeichen in Silber' as were produced by the: 'Fritz Zimmermann'-company are not that easily encountered: I deem that this example is accordingly priced!

Attractive - and actually scarcely encountered! - WH (Luftwaffe) 'Kuban'-campaign-shield that comes mounted onto its original bluish-grey-coloured 'backing' and that comes in a presumably issued - albeit still 'virtually mint', condition

This is a truly attractive - and in this most certainly issued but I deem never worn condition actually scarcely encountered! - WH (Luftwaffe) so-called: 'Kuban'-campaign-shield that comes mounted onto its original, bluish-grey-coloured- and/or woolen-based 'backing' and that comes in a probably issued albeit still 'virtually mint'- (and with certainty never tunic-attached-), condition. The - highly detailed and/or pronounced! - shield comes naturally complete with its original metal-based 'back-plate' and still retains all four of its original prongs (being attached to the centre of the shield as more often encountered with original 'Kuban'-campaign-shields as can be seen on the pictures). The piece sill retains most (ie. all!) of its (shiny) finish and retains its light-green-coloured- and/or carton-based 'backing-cover' (as can be seen on the pictures). This example has stunning detail and truly retains almost all of its somewhat glossy appearance (showing some darkened tarnish) and has never been cleaned nor polished: it does show some minimal staining as is visible on the pictures). It should, however, be noted that the (original) 'Kuban'-campaign-shields are a bit underestimated in value and rarity. Genuine - and nicely preserved! - examples of the 'Kuban'-shield are actually not that easily encountered even more so when they were intended for Luftwaffe-staff. I deem that this attractive and fully untouched example is accordingly priced!

Attractive, so-called: N.S.K.K. (ie. 'National Socialistisches Kraftfahr Korps') eagle-device as executed in 'BeVo'-weave pattern (and that still shows it period-applied- and/or paper-based 'RzM'-etiket attached)

This is an attractive example of a multi-coloured, so-called: N.S.K.K. (ie. 'National Socialistisches Kraftfahr Korps') eagle-device (as was I deem intended to be worn on sports-attire or even a tiny car-flag) that still has its period-applied- and/or paper-based 'RzM'-etiket attached and that comes in a very nice- (ie. never used- ie. 'virtually mint- ie. unissued'-), condition. The eagle-device - which is neatly woven in the so-called: 'BeVo'-type weave-technique and that measures 12 x 9,7 cms. - comes as stated above complete with its original, paper-based- and light-blue-coloured 'RzM'-etiket attached (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was never used nor attached but does show some minimal age ie. staining (simply caused by decades of storage ie. handling). Simply an attractive N.S.K.K.-related eagle-device that will be very hard to be upgraded!

Superb - and rarely found! - JM- (ie. 'Jungmädel') so-called: 'Leistungsabzeichen in Silber' being a maker- (ie. 'RzM M1/128'-) marked example that shows a unique bearers'-number (that reads: '56275') and that comes in an untouched condition

This is a truly attractive - and actually rarely encountered! - JM- (ie. 'Jungmädel'-) ie. BDM- (ie. 'Bund Deutscher Mädel'-) related, so-called: 'Leistungsabzeichen in Silber' being a neatly maker- (ie. 'RzM M1/128'-) marked- and multi-piece constructed example that shows an impressed bearers'-number on its back (that reads: '56275') and that comes in an overall very nice- (albeit moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The badge - which originates from a private-household where it was recently uncovered - comes naturally mounted onto its functional pin ie. pin/catch set-up and retains a neat (and/or fully undamaged and untouched!) silver-coloured finish (which is just a bit tarnished and/or slightly dirty ie. stained as can be seen on the pictures). The detail on this rarely seen, small-sized youth-related item is simply stunning and/or pronounced. It should be noted that these neat (girl-related-) awards are very hard to encounter and can easily be graded 'rare'. Simply a very attractive example of this neat 'JM'-related sports-proficiency award: only the second such attractive youth-sports-badge I ever had on offer!

The attractive lapel-pin - which has only been minimally used and/or worn - has a nicely preserved age-patina and has most certainly never been cleaned nor polished: it is showing minimal wear but is totally void of any paint-damage (as can be seen on the pictures): just some minimal wear ie. scratches are noticable. The badge shows, moreover, a minimally 'tarnished' finish as can be seen from the pictures. This example - which has a somewhat darker-red- (ie. black- and white-) coloured- (ie. painted or sprayed) area - comes mounted onto its typical pin- ie. pin /catch-set-up (which is naturally still fully functional and/or present).

Miniature of an: 'Ehrenkreuz der deutschen Mutter - dritte Stufe' (or: bronze-class mothers'-cross) being a non-maker-marked example that comes in an overall nice- (albeit moderately worn- ie. used-), condition

This is an attractive - and with certainty desirable! - miniature of an: 'Ehrenkreuz der deutschen Mutter - dritte Stufe' (or: bronze-class mothers'-cross) being a non-maker-marked example that comes in an overall nice- (albeit clearly issued ie. moderately used- and/or worn-), condition. The small-sized award shows a tiny enamel-chipped area (on the right of the swastika) but comes nevertheless in a nice condition overall: it shows the to be expected motto on its back which reads: '16 December 1938 - Adolf Hitler'. The reddish-bronze-toned finish is just a tiny bit tarnished, but the piece was never cleaned nor polished. The small badge (having an approximate height of only: 2 cms.) shows great, pronounced detail: just like its larger- ie. 'regular'-sized counterparts. The miniature comes mounted onto its original safety-pin-attachment, fitted for easy attaching it to a dress (or even uniform). The miniature was recently found at a German private household and was never before in collectors'-hands. Simply a nice occasion to acquire neat: 'Ehrenkreuz der Deutschen Mutter in Bronze'-miniature that is priced according to its minimal enamel-damaged condition!
