OSTIN

Ostin, your answer sounds interesting and I have some additional questions.

Does your answer mean it is a original badge, but something like a pre-production model? How can I prove/verify this?

Whats about the "non-standard" fastener? I have no experience if this badge Model has been official awarded or sold during WW II. Can somebody give explanations, how this badge has been given to the Kroation Legion.

I bought this badge in Belgium last Weekend from an Austrian Collector (Vienna).

I understood you. Let us begin from the fact that on your sign it was not originally another fastening. I.e., sign was by such original. On its performance (it is made a die), coating and to common form it is possible to say that it old. However, since it is not reward, but it serves as the sign of belonging, then I assume that there were the varieties of the fastening. Unfortunately, where you it purchased in the determination of authenticity a value it does not have.

PS: For the contact with you I use electronic translator; therefore are possible errors in my transfer. :beer:

Ostin, thank you for the information and your pictures. What does it mean non-standard, its a fake or produced after 1945?

Regards Bodomir

I do not think that these are copy, possibly, this the version of production. After 45 such rewards did not make.

This not Spain. ;)

I have a complete set to the pilot of Croatia. Fastening must be here similar on the signs of German production. To that given by you of photo the fastening is not standard. The obverse show?
