Darrell,

Your new bronze spange is in great condition - congrats! Now on to silver...

Is your entire fleet of Schwerin lineage? That's a beautiful 1st pattern S-Boot. All in all, an outstanding collection.

Best Regards,

Erik

Of course if you are going for a complete Schwerin collection, the biggest challenge is yet to come -you'll need to find the 1st Pattern U-Boat Clasps too

Seriously though, a damn fine selection there Darrell.

Strange thing with Schwerin, the finishing quality of their tombak badges was superlative, yet the finish on their zinkers was never that good so getting a bronze U-Boat Clasp with a super finish like that is quite an achievement. Hope you can find a matching silver.

Thanks guys.

Not so sure about the 1st Pattern Gordon ... I think just the basic Bronze and Silver will make me happy
