Guest Rick Research Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 That IS an odd pin construction-- known from mar5ked Third Reich badges? I don't get into zinky be-swastika'd things, so never noticed this before. All which identifies unmarked makers is goooooood. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRBeery Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 Here is an odd Meybauer piece. I am used to seeing these in the gold base metal color but not black. Any others out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CRBeery Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 This piece seems to be blued like a firearm rater than painted. The finish is very smooth. It looks to have been this way since it was made. The tips of the wings show the typical gold color where the coating has worn off. I looked around and did not see others done this way. Post others if you have them. I like this one better than the golden ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hauptmann Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 My 57... or perhaps I should say post war as I believe these were not specifically mentioned in the 57 laws regarding such things and did not have to be redesigned re: denazification.

army historian Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Hello all, did they award Silesian Eagles with and with out swords? I always though the eagles came without swords. Cheers Captain Albert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchdog Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Although I tend to limit my collection to Third Reich items the Silesian Eagle is often found in the same group as TR awards which apart from the fact that it has a certain appeal in itself probably means I should make a space for it! However, I know virtually nothing about the medal itself and am not really in a position to comment on originality so I would appreciate opinions on this one. It came with a number of other (totally authentic) TR items and although I would have left it the seller was not inclined to remove it from the deal. I was (and remain) very sceptical of this medal and feel that at best it is a very late piece possibly produced long after the original award date for the use of veterans. At worst it is an out and out repro. The ribbon is certainly modern and glows rather brightly under UV. I would appreciate it if anyone could accurately "peg" this item for me. As I say, I believe it is definately not period but believing and knowing are poles apart in this hobby! Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Destruction Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Both are good. You can find them in different versions--massive, hollow, half hollow. From these 2 I'd personally prefer the 1st one most probably produced by Petz&Lorenz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
