Tinnies Uncertain Kyffh?userbund tinnie

[Troy Tempest]

Good morning again gents! This arrived today, and I would just like to make sure I have the correct German name for this badge, it was described as Metallabzeichen Kyffh?userbund:

3 euros well spent!

[Ulsterman]

Isn't that a cap badge?

Still, 3 euros very well spent.

Hi Ulsterman! I don't know if it is a cap badge, it measures 45mm high by 38mm wide. Sorry I don't have a reverse shot, but it has pin setup that looks like the ones found on wound badges if that's any help.

Description is spot on very similar to the Kyfhausser Jugendbund

Hi student! What is a Kyffh?user Armbinde please?

Troy, Armbinde is German for armband.

Ok, thanks for that Richard, so do you think this is an armband badge? Is that the final consensus?

Hi Student, thanks very much for that link, that shop has got everything!

SILBERNES ?RMEL-EHRENZEICHEN. Versilbert, 49x40 mm an Nadel/Splint. Trageweise an der Armbinde

So does this mean it's a silver sleeve badge? To be worn on an armband? (my guess at translating!)
