    1. Really like the wrought iron candle holder Robin. I have one as well as you can see in my little display. Mine has runic symbols on the base.
    2. Nice Wessel, I have your Foxl's brother sitting in white!
    3. Oh yeah and you gotta love the story that it came from Grimminger!
    4. Just the messy paint on the left foot is a dead give away that this CH was not done by Allach. Heck, I have no talent at all and I could do better that that!
    5. My newest piece is not uncommon but cool none the less!
    6. Here's a little spring time display that I did that shows my plate.
    7. Good minds think a like Robin!
    8. You picked the right one Robin! These tellers go well with a Julfest display.
    9. Robin, mine also has the Werkschar marking on the reverse. Best, Erich
    10. A few more
    11. To keep this thread going, here's a few more pieces in my collection.
    12. Very nice Robin, here's my example with the Edda script.
    13. Thanks Stan for posting your fine badge to complete this thread. I may add a nice RZM badge to go with my 1st type someday.
    14. There is a large thread on the CB on another forum that I have seen you on where you can see an RZM example. I don't have one in my collection and don't want to post a photo of another collectors badge.
    15. Not original IMO.
    16. The original list had 436 names on it. The additional recipients were probably Honor awards given by Hitler which he also did with the Gold Party Badge and Blood Order. The 1st type badge is much more rare than the RZM marked one. The pins on the 1st types were very fragile and were improved on the later badges.
    17. Hitler and a few of his followers were invited by City Officals to attend German Day celebrations in Marxist Coburg in Oct. 1922. Hitler thought that it was important to take his young Party out of Munich for much needed exposure. During the March at Coburg there were many street battles between the Marxists and Nazis. Hitlers follows came out on top and the towns people sided with Hitler over the Marixts from that time forward. If Hitler would have been defeated it may have been the end for the DAP and there would possibly have not been a second world war. So, this was the very first victory for the Party outside on Munich. The badges that Jim and I posted are 1st type badges and were the actual awarded badges to the recipients in 1932. The later RZM marked badges came about probably in 1936 when it was elevated to a national Honor award of the Party. The later badge had a stronger pin attachment and whas a probable Honor award given out by Hitler or could be purchased as a replacement or extra badge by the original participants of the March. This badge was equal in status to the Blood Order but much more rare being only awarded 436 times.
    18. Well, it tells you how rare these awards are after waiting two years for a reply. The Battle of Coburg is one of my passions and here's a little collage of my Coburg collection including my 1st type badge.
    19. Yes, it's the HJ Drummer. I also have more than a few animals and candle holders as well in my collection but the Drummer is my favorite!
    20. Nice pieces! Here's my favorite piece in my Allach collection.
    21. Or you can do your homework. A lot of forums including this one have many originals to compare.
    22. Thanks William, I don't have it all in one place but that's a great idea!
    23. I just added this rare little gem to my collection. It's interesting to note that it has the same date as the Coburg Badge itself.
