I have been after one of these for quite some time. I had never had one in hand and was I suprised when I opened the box and this tiny little bugger came out. Pre-RZM ST. & L. They are 63 correct? 9118j in Husken Any one else have an example to show. Have a nice weekend. Robert

Sorry. Need to put it aside a more internationally known item for comparison. I wonder where this would have been worn. Robert

After looking through this thread for the 5th or 6th time I was inspired to add my example.

Note they cut off 1/2 of the C and H. in GESCH.

My Frauensch appears larger than yours. Would you have a tape handy?

Don, I know you are busy. Should you get the chance back on post #22 the group shot. Can you make out the pole toppers? They look like a spear point with a large round base. I have read of such a design but do not recall having seen one before.

Robert, I thought the same.

Mine measures. 16 and 1/2mm. wide X 18mm. high, or 17 32nds. wide X 22 32nds. high.

Barely big enough for me to see.

Joe Ahhh I think yours is 9118h and mine is 9118i!! I hope we are not confusing. And, what is the concensus on what the 3 letters stand for? G, H, and L that is.

[--dj--Joe]

Glaube, Hoffnung und Liebe (Glaube, Hoffe, Liebe). Faith, Hope, Love.

I'm never too busy for you Joe.........

Unfortunately, they go off the top of the image, here's a bigger scan.
