Stogieman Posted May 11, 2006 Share Posted May 11, 2006 That's pretty funny.... 1813 EK with crown!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Murphy Posted May 13, 2006 Share Posted May 13, 2006 The first badge is apparently supposed to be a hat insignia made on by a crewman on a U-Boat. Normally even though sometimes handmade, these insignia were a badge of honor worn by the the crews. Therefore a great deal of care was used in making them or they were jeweler made. This one looks like it was made by a 5 year old with a hatchet. The 1813..... well it would look better without the crown. I suppose that is to represent the owner has had it for 50 years?

Dan MurphyI think a 5 year old with a blindfold and a hatchet would have made a better job Kevin in Deva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By stretching one's imagination it could be a Unification commemorative, but, This was not an issued badge but was made up.I think that says it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorhead Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 This seller is the well known "Afrikaheld".............so what do you expect? but in another forum they said he's selling an original visor at the moment! Must be an error of him........Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
