Many thanks for your kindness .Other question : is the mm on the pin as I have seen in a Michel's pic or on the boat ?I have never seen on the market this type . Is it very hard to find ?When you decide to sell a badge like this pleas remember meyours sincerelygiorgio
Gordon Williamson Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Giorgio,I believe Michel's example is marked on the pin. Mine is unmarked, but you can always identify a Zimmermann as all four arms of the swastika are cut out. On Mayer and Schickle badges only 3 arms are cut out, the top arm remains solid..

Weseruebung Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Look at this fire gilding. I love to watch this baby which i got from a crew member of U-243.Chris
Gordon Williamson Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 Very nice badge Chris, but a Mayer piece, not Zimmermann.
Weseruebung Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 hi Gordon,i know. In this case i only wanted to compare the fire gilding of both types. Chris
