Title Gilt Luftwaffe lapel pin
Nationality German
Period c 1936-45
Sold

This pin models the 2nd pattern airforce eagle, introduced in about 1936, replacing the earlier 'drop tailed ' type. Both paratroop units and regular airforce personnel would have worn this in 'civvies'.

It would appear to be made of some base metal alloy with a gold plated finish. Its condition is fairly good overall, with the pot metal showing at the edges.

testimonials

Today I received your flag. It's very nice and looks genuine to me. Beautifull crisp colors! It looks barely used. It's a nice addition to my ww2 collection. I would even say, one of my top pieces.

Thanks for your excellent service and top communication!

I will check your site more often to see if you have more nice pieces.

I received the bayonet today. Very nice example. I will keep an eye on your site for possible future purchases.
