derjager(Joe) Tells me that this is a Reichskriegerbund (Vets org.) badge with a city/state crest.

Can anyone offer more information on it?

Thanks

J.R.,

What else can one say other than it's a superb little unit! Really a nice piece, congratulations on finding that one!

Thanks Bill, the find belongs to Mike Pinkus, I purchased it from him.

It is a nice item!

Should you ever tire of looking at it.

Indeed, a very nice badge.

Cheers

Thanks Don and all. Check out the size of this pin/badge.

I believe the 25 is for the 25th anniversary of the ending of WW1.This would date the pin

I know of 25's, 40's and 50 dated RKB pins.

I knew I'd seen this badge somewhere before...... Just came across it again in Detlev's new book (page 147), he prices it at 400 Eur/USD.

Cheers

Don,

Way to go, that's outstanding!

See, good clean living pays off again!

Bill

Dam,,,, don't tell Pinkus, he'll have a stoke !

Thanks Don, and everyone.

Paulbear, it has nothing to do with the end of WW1. The badge was given for 25 years of Membership.

Regards Kolibri

400 WOW!!!!!

Sorry I meant to say, "STROKE".

Hey, found one of these dainties as well. From another dealer who didn't know what Detlev valued it at.......

Don, congrats. These are great looking badges.

My turn next. I hope.

Hey Don,

I'll trade you something nice and interesting
for either one of those little beauties?

Even if you don't want to it's OK.., but please give me an email?

Thank you!

Bill

Thank you Gentlemen. And yes, I'm sure Jamie will agree when I say that these certainly look & feel impressive in the hand.

Bill, email sent.

Cheers
Don

Gentlemen,

..ooops, sorry - my bad!

I must've gotten too excited, heh. I think the Thüringen Löwe was a great looking wappen.

Best to all!

Bill

Wow, great badges! This is the first NS period vet badge that I really like. (I usually stick to ones w/o the swaz).
