Awesome but too expensive for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chip Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Charles,The Hoch u. Deutschmeister regiment and the Edelwei?korps badges are some of the most desirable and thus most expensive. In the last decade there has been a great influx of Italian collectors into WWI Austro-Hungarian collecting (for obvious reasons) and with the value of the Euro, most of the nicer badges have skyrocketed in value. This used to be a very affordable area to collect in, but like everything else, it has gotten out of reach for the average collector. I am fortunate to have started collecting cap badges in the 1980s when the average price was about $15.00. Today, I would venture to say that the average is about $45.00 or more.Chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
