Title SS day badge, Munich, 1933
Nationality German
Period 1933
Price £0.00
Sold

This badge, of which the most common fake is in aluminium, is actually die-struck tombak with a heavy silver plate finish. It may commemorate the swearing in of the Leibstandarte in Munich in the winter of 1933. I'm not absolutely sure about this and would welcome any comments.

This badge does not appear in any of the reference books I have to hand, viz Detlev Niemann, etc, but it must be a rare piece simply to have been copied so extensively.

As of 2021, considered by C&T Auctions to be fake and sold as such.

If you want to comment on this item—re quality, age, etc—please email me.

testimonials

Thanks very much for the bayonet. I am very happy, I think your photos of your items are great because nothing is hidden and you can clearly see them. (Unlike some other dealers.) Everything was as you describe, I will be keeping a eye on your site for any further bayonets for my collection.
