    This popped up recently as a "have to have" because of the maker. Vaulted multi-piece construction, nicely silvered star burst and gilded "Peninsula" bar, matt enamel painted features, needle pin back. 40mm wide, 55mm tall.

    I am assuming some sort of Braunschweig veteran's item? Does anybody have any more info on this very colourful item?

    Regards

    Mike

    scull and Peninsula battle honors are Husaren-Regiment Nr. 17 or Infanterie-Regiment Nr. 92 related

    Colors and coat-of-arms of the Dutchy of Brunswick (Herzogtum Braunschweig)

    The castle on red background is the coat-of-arms of the Hanse City Hamburg

    Many thanks for the replies so far gents.

    Husaren connection? The piece above came with the attached 22mm diam. stickpin (marked for a Kiel maker), which I thought was unrelated so did not post it.

    Does this help focus the investigation?

    I am inclined to agree with your thought -

    I cannot think of a connection.

    Perhaps someone else can come up with one?
