Eric Stahlhut Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 there is an entire series of these badges for all kinds of qualifications, but i always thought that this particular type dates from before the 20-45 era. more towards austro-hungarian period? the later ones were of a different shape: more oblongish-rectangular; i will see if i can dig one up!
