So I love the Odal brooches and collect and buy when I can find these. This my newest hope you find more to sell/trade:

Really nice, man!

thanks Mike...if anyone finds more of these, I am am looking to buy them

Looks like a handmade one.
Real fine piece!

That looks like a runed up fake G. What do you think? Hand vs kunst. Me no like .. anyway I am lucky I guess. other than what I have sold to profidious jackasses.

you know these aren't my thing.. The first one supposedly there is a period photo in wear,,but the pin looks 'newish' to me..

the 2nd ,,I mean sure you have the time and talent and you can make this now.. The guys that collect them must have some sort of criteria they use for authentication.. Maybe one of the guys will come on and explain what they look for..

Yes indeed you are the undisputed ring guy and purveyor of continuing education since
don and craig decided to be ill. but broaches ... lets call them all ill until proven otherwise. Thanks G.
Also your synopsis is point on.

Also the mottos are funny. Like Ich leib dick etc

lol

if anyone finds any of the above examples, I will gladly buy them from you.

Not funny...."Plattdeutsch", spoken in parts of northern Germany.

Interesting
Do they pronounce Reich as a soft ch
Or more like a K I wonder

I would say this dialect is a mix between german, englisch and netherlands speaking.

Sorry Lore.
But if i plan to sell this items i will remember you

Lore,, you are right,,this is a very good topic. I left it up for a while and now cleaned up a bit..

We have a great international forum here. It's been here for a long time. No site is public,all the military sites are privately owned and have their own rules so its their way or the highway.. You break the rules here and your gone simple as that..

We spend a ton of hard earned money on our hobby and don't have time for silliness and/or insults. We're here to catch the fakes and promote the hobby thru showing nice authentic period pieces. Everyone will be respected..

here is another from my files. Think from MFF:

Thanks guys, that one is very nice G! Would like to find one of those too!

Here is a Hitler Jugend Nordmark card. Notice the 2nd line? it is the same one as on the odal rune brooch above!

Wow, nice! looks like 1923?

can you give us a little bit of translation on it? or anyone? just enough for a bit of understanding... Thanks!! is it in your collection!?

The poem is from 1923 but readopted by Nazis. The brooches are from 3rd reich era. I have the full translation somewhere and need to find it. Not my card. Owner name is copyright on bottom.

Second line talks about our land is holy land.

Very, very nice card.
Thanks for sharing.
