The silver ones are numbered... I have seen 2, both numbered under 100. They are also 800 stamped. Mine is numbered 36

Silver for officers?  Bronze for NCOs/soldiers?

I was flipping through the book for the 1925 festivities, they are not mentioned.

I am not sure if these were for the Jäger themselves, or were sold to raise funds... I am guessing it may have been for the men in the unit with a set number made, maybe silver of officers and bronze for the men..... somewhere out there it is explained black on white who gets what... I wonder if that piece of paper will ever turn up? :-)
