An outstanding colection of very interesting peices.

I have seen British dies and moulds before but never German ones

Hi Dan

Glad you enjoy them. When I saw these dies, my jaw dropped. The detail on the dies are amazing. Best of all, there are more. I will post one or two a week so please check back to see them. I also took photos of some Italian dies and will post them as soon as I finish with the German dies.

Is it just me or do some things not look right? The serial number and mint mark on the #2 Red Banner for instance look strange... As does the numerical shield on the #3 Red Banner... As does the serial number on the OPW1... But most of all the serial number of the first Red Star you posted.

Hello,

I am not sure it it is the lighting but the white enamel on the Red Banners does not look normal from the photos; unless the enamel were repaired.

OK, we got the WWI Wounds Badge so here is the die for the WWII Wound Badge.

Not a die, but still interesting.

This is the raised paper seal for Himmler.

+ Der Reichsfuhrer - SS +

Note the matched number 494 on the seal and on the lid of the container for the seal.

Greetings to All,

Here is another die to look at. I do not know much about this area of interest. Can members of this forum let me know what sort of items were made from these dies.

Thank you,

DN

Yeah, i noticed that, it's what jogged my memory of this piece of mine. The distance from tip to tip is 93 mm.

Later,

Pat

I should have taken measurements of these dies. I think your measurements is pretty close to the one in my photo.

While I am at it, here is another die to look at.

Have you look at the first posting photo on this thread. The die looks pretty close to your foam one. What is the distance between wing tips?

A photo of a plaque made almost 66 years ago. It is over a meter in length. Pardon the poor quality of the photo.

Here is an original set of dies that made this medal. You can make out the bands on the top and bottom.

Greetings to All,

I think this one was used to make the belt buckle.

One more...

Darrel: Here is a post from another forum member.

The CCC is massive and the rear of the CCC has another die (with the maker mark on it for example). I think that this shown positive front side CCC was the original die used to make the negative die which in turn was used as press mold for the actual clasps.

Regards,

DJ

Oh there are a whole lot more of these original dies that I saw. Some in better conditions than other.

Hope y'all enjoy the photos.
