Wiley Winter Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 All, I have purchased, from a reliable veteran, a Nazi armband of some sort. It is constructed three parts; swatsika, white disk, and armband. What, I suppose, separates this from your garden variety armband is a stamp on the disk. It's under the swatsika so you can't read it all but it has a light house in the middle of it. I hope you can see the stamp on the image I'm uploading.

Ulsterman Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 Is that a lighthouse or the Kyfyserbund memorial tower? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul R Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I have not seen this type of armband stamped in this manner. It is an interesting piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_kuppy Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Hello all,I recently purchased this item from an antique mall. I was wondering if anyone had any information regarding this piece. Is it authentic, it looks like it's in very good condition, a bit too good. ThanksM_kuppy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_kuppy Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 It's the exact same one as the first picture, the exact same arm band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyles bullets Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 If it's the exact same one, with those limited pictures, it seems to be good. The Kyffhauserbund group wore the NSDAP armband on their arm, and the one like the other above around their cuff. So makes sense for an armband to have this stamp. I have seen it done a few times.

M_kuppy Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 I've been doing research and haven't been able to find the exact stamp anywhere. Do you have the name of it by chance, so I can get a better idea of what the full stamp looks like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytop Posted August 18, 2015 Share Posted August 18, 2015 Hi M_kuppy,it is hard, to find the exact stamp. I think, that there are hundreds of different Kyffhäuser stamps.Please look here for an example:http://www.philaseiten.de/up/1600737/8/8/ab7d65de_h.jpegUwe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
