    Hello there,

    Here are a few samples of my collection of German, Swiss and I think Belgian shooting competitions. I have about 25 more as well I can post later if you want. I really don't know much about these medals, and I'm looking for any info on rarity, history and just who would wear and acquire these badges (army members? civilians?). Some have maker marks on the reverse pins and most of them are mounted on a red, white, blue and black ribbon. Any information on these shooting badges would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Pat

    Hi Pat,

    These are not German Shooting badges. These are just sport commemorative badges from Switzerland. Also my Grandfather had many of these, since he was active in the local Gymnastics' Club in Lugano (Switzerland). There are just souvenirs badges for members of such clubs that went to attend regional sport events (see the names on the badge, these are cities in Switzerland) to perform gymnastic excercises with their clubs/associatens during.

    I don't know the value of these badges, but I am afraid there are not much worth, since I don't know if people collect them.

    Ciao,

    Claudio
