Title Army officer's/ORs peaked cap cockade
Nationality German
Period 1933-45
Sold

These were introduced in 1933, when the black/white/red of the new regime replaced the black/gold/red colours of the Weimar era, adding a wreath of oak leaves to the former rather plain cap roundel. The Reichsadler was worn above this. There was also a bullion version in spun aluminium wire.

This is numbered 2 on the back and stamped 'Ges.Gesch.' for patent pending.

The condition is virtually ex-stores.

I collected my iron cross this am from the sorting office. Thank you for the medal; as before it's a very nice one. Thank you for your prompt service and I look forward to purchasing more in the future from you and your wonderful site.
