I am sorry to read of the theft. I hope no one was harmed. I wish for a safe return of the items and a fitting end to the thiefs. --dj--Joe

Reverse. --dj--Joe Some added info. The badge measures 23mm. and is magnetic, the pin is not and I doubt the pin retaining plate is but I can not tell. The detail is present beneath the enamel, scanner did not pick it up.

Latest find, silver, small size. Robert shows an example on post #21. Obverse. --dj--Joe

Both original but very common tinnies. Someone collecting by maker marks might be interested. Otherwise in my opinion a hard sell. --dj--Joe

Colin, I remember. Nice to see them again. --dj--Joe

Thanks Don. I updated my notes. --dj--Joe

Wood, thanks, nice pieces. --dj--Joe

It is a recognized mark (has been observed on other dress bayonets), but to my knowledge the maker remains unknown. --dj--Joe

Thanks Don. In these so many years of collecting this is the first Tirol example that has surfaced localy to my knowledge. Should my funds improve I may have to actively search out a couple of enameled examples. --dj--Joe

Postschutz buckle
--dj--Joe replied to lach470's topic in Germany: Third Reich: Uniforms, Headwear, Insignia & Equipment
Postschutz buckles are indeed one of the more interesting designs of N.S. period buckles. But last time I checked they cost both an arm and a leg to purchase. --dj--Joe -
Through a trade deal, I have acquired my first example. Allow me to get my loop. It's that small I can not read the writing on the front. Meistersch?tze 1943. Non magnetic zinc/alloy base metal. Brass pin and pin plate. Obverse, Reverse, --dj--Joe

Here's all of Them!
--dj--Joe replied to lach470's topic in Germany: Third Reich: Uniforms, Headwear, Insignia & Equipment
That's a nice assemblage of buckles. The Gold DAF must have been a tough one to find. --dj--Joe -
Wood, that last one is a beaut. What is the center piece made of? Please. --dj--Joe

Tinnies copy or original
--dj--Joe replied to KDVR's topic in Germany: Third Reich: Organisational Membership Badges & Tinnies
Appears to me to be an orig. aluminum badge / tinnie. --dj--Joe -

Good detective work. Fortunate that they were still in business and replied. --dj--Joe -
New buckle Unknown maker

Thank you. --dj--Joe

I note this did not receive much comment. Was it common for two Faithfull Service cross's to be worn together? I had read that only the highest would be worn, in this case the 40 yr. But I have seen many instances of nonconforming bars and strange sequence of awards. Has it been noted before that more than one was worn? I looked about but have not seen other examples. --dj--Joe
