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

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.

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