Title Plaque for army marksmanship lanyard, 2nd type
Nationality German
Period c 1936-45
Sold

Marksmanship lanyards, of semi-bright aluminium cord, had various designs (eg the army eagle in a shield, etc) and were awarded for shooting proficiency. They were worn on full dress uniform. This plaque is missing its lanyard.

It is in fairly good shape, although two of its fixing pins on the reverse have been broken off and there is some wear and tear evident on the sword blades of the design.

Wanted to let you know the items arrived today. Great job on the packing. Too often I buy very expensive and irreplaceable items from the UK and they get sent barely packed to protect them from the various postal services - appreciate you going the extra mile to insure it arrived in the shape it left. Thanks again, look forward to doing business with you in the future. Items were very nice, exactly as offered.
