JBeltram Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 (edited) Hi folks,I have always loved the Destroyers badge by Schwerin Berlin. I would like to see what other Destroyer badges are out there. So let us see your best Destroyers badge.Regards, Jody Here is my badge. There is actually no gilt missing anywhere on the badge (there is no gilt missing on the eagle, but it looks like it in the scan) and it is perfect (I feel it is hard to beat).

JBeltram Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 This badge belongs to my friend Tony Casale here in Arizona. It is very worn but it has a lot of personality. This was from a set that was broken up, and the winner of this badge also won the Spanish Cross in Bronze with out Swords.Regards, Jody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon Williamson Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 Whilst I'm not a big fan of Schwerin (some of their stuff is nice, but some is pretty cruddy), I did quite like their Destroyer badge, even though some of them have that horribly mis-struck swastika.

claudiu Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 (edited) Here is my dystroyer badge, found in an weekly junck market. I paied 5 Euro for it. I think it's original but I am not shure, can I get some opinions regarding this badge. i collect romanian militaria so I am not an expert in german ww2 badges. Here are the pictures of the badge. http://imageshack.us/g/838/20121223081624.jpg/ Edited March 10, 2013 by claudiu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin W Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Hi Claudiu, The badge appears to be a poorly cast fake of a Schwerin badge,sorry to say. Regards,Martin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
