HJ Hochland Badge 1934
I need your help in figuring out if this badge is original. I have seen only a few of them and most of these that are in existence are in collections. These don’t come up for sale that often and not much reference is available also. Any and all feedback is much appreciated. In advance Thank you so much for your help, feedback and input. JME

Nobody has one of these? Nobody knows anything about this? It is still Winter and not spring. JME

these enamelled HOCHLAND tinnies are a nightmare with most known fakes. There was a lengthy thread on these here awhile back with some heated arguments. You might want to do a search. For me I stay away from these

I also have one of the badges listed in the link that Joe put up! I really got banged around when I posted one on a different forum so I threw it in my junk box and forgot about it until I seen this post!

First of all Thank you all for your feedback and input! It is my opinion that this Badge is an authentic WWII period item. It really has nothing to do with the enamel badges we see from time to time. This is the smaller version of the Table Medal but with a pin. Like I said it is my opinion and I don’t have a lot of facts to back this up. Some things we just may never know. Thank you. JME
