Thanks for the compliment Jamie, but if the truth be known I learnt everything I know about these from John Pepera. He's the guy who's built a beautiful collection of these fine pins & made a study of them.

I also agree with your earlier comment, I think it's time for an enamels & tinnies forum.

Cheers
Don

Joe I missed a nice VDA pin (pin back type) on e pier about three weeks ago, went for less than 1/3 of it's value, been kicking myself every day since.

Those N.S.A.D pins Don has are rare.

Duane always has some nice pins to post.


It would be nice if we had a fourm for enamels and tinnies.

These pins posted, I didn't miss.

Thank you Don, yours are beautiful examples. reading your postings on this forum and others regarding these badges really helped me allot, thanks. Below is the first one that I owned, traded it to Mike Pinkus for two pocket badges, really missed it, and now lucky enough to run across another that won't leave my collection.
I think he still has this one for sale.

OK...Let me see if I can remember this correctly. Maybe Joe can help if I screw up.
According to a collector friend of Bill Stump's, it was a pin to signify a member or commander of a gun crew on the early armed merchant marine ships. These ships were a part of the KDF fleet and were not supposed to be armed.
As you can see its a pretty obscure pin. I did copy the info down when Bill posted it and if I find it I will check it to be sure.

Joe,
I've never seen another.Don't imagine that there were many made. I tried to find the original post but I guess it was lost in the switchover.

Last one for a while...

This is the Deutsche Christen group, formed in '33/'34 as a Nazi lobby group to influence the outcome of the election of local Protestant Bishops. Very high quality gilt and nicely marked on the reverse.

Here's one I found in a Florida junk shop on holidays (the stuff my wife puts up with Roll Eyes).

It's a Type II Closer Staff Reich Level Frauenshaft Leader Badge. The back is marked simply with the RZM mark and "63" for Steinhauer & Luck. The lack of the "M1" means it was made between December 1934 when RZM marks became mandatory and March 1935 when the M numbers were given out.

Heering / Husken's last edition had this one pegged at 3500 DM (!).

OK, so I lied. Here's one more for the VDA lovers. Sorry for the poor photo - the digital camera is on its last legs. It's a highly vaulted cream coloured enamel with gold and blue palm; unmarked on reverse.
