Kev in Deva Posted September 8, 2010 Posted September 8, 2010 Spotted this badge recently, can anybody give me any ideas what it was for? Sorry no picture of the rear. Kevin in Deva. :beer:
Robin Lumsden Posted September 8, 2010 Posted September 8, 2010 That's an odd one. Looks 'Teutonic'/East Prussian. Never seen another in 40 years.
Scowen Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 Never seen another in 40 years. Me either....... I suspect that it could be modern, especially with the subdued Swastika around the outside of the wolfsangle. Cheers Don
Kev in Deva Posted September 13, 2010 Author Posted September 13, 2010 Better pictures of the item in question:- http://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_09_2010/post-950-128436431773.jpghttp://gmic.co.uk/uploads/monthly_09_2010/post-950-128436433267.jpg Kevin in Deva. :cheers:
Scowen Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 I must admit it's kinda cool..... Did you buy it? What was the dealer asking for it? Cheers Don
Kev in Deva Posted September 13, 2010 Author Posted September 13, 2010 I did not take it yet, but, he is asking 75 Euros for it. Postage extra. Kevin in Deva. :beer:
Scowen Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 That's not a bad price I guess, may be worth taking the risk just in case some info turns up on it in the future. It could still be a mordern fantasy item though...... If you decide not to take it let me know Cheers Don
censlenov Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Could it not be a Nationaal-Socialistische Beweging (NSB) tinnie? Way out of my sphere of knowledge but thats my theory. Cheers Chris

Cheers Chris It's definitely not Dutch (well, not pre '45 Dutch), or any of the pre '45 Scandinavian NS groups. Cheers Don
Wood Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Looks as if its lost the protective loop from the catch, also looks very small, regimental or unit crest? Estonian?? Pete
Robin Lumsden Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Still think it's something to do with The Teutonic Order. See here............. http://www.dr-bernhard-peter.de/Heraldik/deu-ord-1.htm Also, a shield with (variant) golden wolf hooks.

Estonian?? Pete Hi ! It's surely a German item. I found it twice here but I don't know fro which organisation it is.
