An excellent example of the DRV badge can be found on this link.

(Scroll up a bit, it will not lock in on the spot I desire). Roll Eyes

Most of the silvering is long gone from my example.

Thanks for the extra picture. Could be a dagger emblem, I believe that they also had daggers, if not, could be a cap badge for them.

Cheers

I am guessing pre-war. The stag head has a patina like bronze. The background behind the stag is a dark gray. I would guess the main part of the medal is silver with a gold wash.

OK, the question is post-war WW1 or WW2.

I'm to young to reference any-thing to WW1. Smile

I was thinking pre WW2. What years 19xx-19xx.

Very nice pins Wachmann, especially the Westmark, been looking for one of those for a while, well done!

The music pins do have some great designs don't you think?

Thanks for showing these.

Cheers
Don

Getting quiet again, time to dig out another.

NSRKB- "Kriegs-Freiwilliger" der Kameradschaft der Kriegsfreiwilligen von 1914/18

From what I understand a WWI volunteers section of the NSRKB.

I'm sorry Benten, but I am unable to answer your questions. I'm not very good at the details of these organisations Frown

Here's one you don't see very often, a throat badge from the Charité Teaching hospital in Berlin. Founded in 1710 to treat plague, it's one of (if not the) oldest hospitals in Germany.

Wachmann, welcome and thank you. Big Grin I also appreciate the Sangerbund pins. I have only gotten around to obtaining three examples. I must get with it! Roll Eyes
If I may ask, does the second example you show have a gilt leaf? I have an example with a silver leaf.

I sincerely hope you enjoy the forum.

Why, you sneaky person Big Grin For a brief moment I did wonder but then decided no as I'd never seen the other music pin Cool.

Welcome aboard my friend.

Don, thanks for your good info. Some thoughts...I presume the DLV stopped when the Luftwaffe was instituted in 1935?
If so, the tinnie is from between 1933-1935 ?
Or perhaps the DLV went on as a sports- association, then the pin could be later...?
Cheers,
Benten

Very nice Benten, this is the type 3 membership badge for the DLV & the 1st one to have a Swastika on it (the earlier two badges did not have one).

Not music I'm afraid but a members pin for the NS Beamtenfachschaft (The NS Official Trade Association). It's so tiny, measuring only 12.34mm across.

Here's an unusual one, Förderung d. Reitersturmes, Lübeck.

The detail on this piece is exceptional, what doesn't show in the scan unfortunately is just how 3D it is.

Here's one that I do not know what to make of it. At first I though it was a tinnie, but there is no specific date. It's silver marked 800 on the reverse (can't see it in the scan as it's too small).

I'm wondering whether it was a commemorative badge of some sort for early members of the NS Lehrerbund celebrating the 1933 victory? Similar to a Gau badge recognising their loyalty?...... Or it could just be a silver tinnie...

Cheers
Don

Here's another we don't see that often, the 1st pattern DJ badge. Only used for the first year of the organisation I believe, after that, the "V" was removed,

I picked this up in a flea market on a recent visit to Munich.

Don

Now that's different indeed! Is this an early volunteer organization that got absorbed and melded into the NSRKB or did they keep their autonomy for a time and remain a seperate entity within the NSRKB?

Don, its in Tieste's 2 volume work "Tatungs- und Veranstaltungsabzeichen 1930-1945" under NSLB, its just listed as metal.The building on it (church/cathedral/town hall) may be known by some of our German members to give a place of issue.
Regards,
Pete

Indeed! As you know I've been looking into these plates for a while now & it seems that they are generally found on early produced badges, mid to late 1920's to very early '30's. When found on TeNo's they are always the early first pattern with translucent red enamel & low serial numbers. On Party badges, always fully maker named or just Ges. Gesch, never RZM marked ones etc.

Cheers
Don

Dumb question on Paul's badge.

If it says Gau 16 .. can it be post WWII ? I thought the Gau designation went away with the Nazis ??

Thanks Pete, where is it listed as such? I've not been able to find it.

Sorry Joe, I've not been keeping up with my duties & allowed the thread to sleep Frown

Here's an unusual one, an early form NSFK. These were only used for a short period up until around 1933 '34 when they were renamed the DLV & the insignia re-designed to make the wings more modern.

Cheers
