Thanks Paul for your input!
My guess is also a prize/souvenir. The engraving looks good to me.
some other opinions?
Gerd

Any time I see SS symbols like that I assume its a fake inscription unless proven otherwise. We have seen many on this forum where period pieces have been engraved/etched with SS symbols and dedications. Even beer bottles
