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 17 on the back and stamped 'Ges.Gesch.' for patent pending.

The condition is virtually ex-stores.
