Hi Dan,

I'm afraid that there aren't many (if any) buckle enthusiasts here. From what I see it looks to be a very nice original early period SA.

I haven't a clue re price though, sorry. You could try the valuation section of our forum http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showforum=120

Cheers

Don

Impressive looking case you have there. Never seen anything like it I'm afraid.....

Cheers

Don

And another.

Dan,

Thank you for sharing those interesting pieces! I have never seen the bells before. I bet that there are not too many around anymore!!!

Very nice items. Funnily enough, you see the bells fairly often, they're quite collectable in themselves as I believe they were made by Allach.

Cheers

Don

Nice one James, I haven't managed to trap one of those yet

Cheers

Don

Yes, but they are so full, I must buy some new one?s

Take some shots of those cases for us, there's some lovely looking things in them from what I can see

Cheers

Don

Not sure who the guy is but the woman in the centre is BDM-Reichsreferentin Trude Mohr .

Cheers

Don

Very nice....... You'll need a tall or long room to display that one

Here's my Active Sisterhood badge. It's the very same one as pictured & described in Angolia's "In the Service of the Reich"

Very nice Florian. Are those your cases underneath?

Don, Thank you for bringing this one out to show us all. Would the fact that it has a serial number make it at all possible to research? The silver has tarnished beautifully. Now that is patina!! Do you have any idea how many of these were issued? Also, have these been copied as frequently as other Schutzstaeffel pieces?? Robert

Nice shooting pins Gentlemen.

Robert, thanks. Apparently these can be researched but I'm not sure how to go about it. I've no idea about how many were issued, how many Norwegians served in the SS? I guess the figure would be roughly the same.

Here is something else, not a stickpin, sorry, but fits with the GssN pin above. A Sponsoring members pin for the Germanske SS Norge, the SM stands for St?ttende Medlemmer. Again, silver marked & serial numbered.

The rainbow effect at the top of the badge is due to the glare of the scanner.

Cheers

Don

Rev. Serial numbered & silver marked

What about this rare beast....... The civil pin for the Germanske SS Norge.

Cheers

Don

Detlev had a badge this week from the same maker, seems to have a K in it as well.....

Cheers

Don

Nice badge, no idea about the mark I'm afraid.

Matt, the DRK were not covered by the RZM regulations so none of their badges are marked in that way.

Cheers

Don

Matt,

Very interesting. I didn't give the members badge or the black bordered a second thought . I assumed that these would be the common ones, & was excited by the other colours..... I hadn't started to look into the availability of DAF badges when I received the news that the collection was up for sale, & so these are the first for my collection.

Cheers

Don

I wasn't going to show off again, but seeing as you insist........

I agree with Steve, they aren't rare, just fewer in numbers. As I've stated before Darrell, very nice find there, well done.

Cheers

Don
