Title Miniature tank battle pin, bronze class
Nationality German
Period c 1940-45
Sold

The badge, for which this pin is the miniature, was instituted on 1 June 1940 for the crews of armoured vehicles other than tanks, ie self-propelled gunners, Panzer Grenadiers, anti-tank units, medics and support units within the Panzer division. This badge is 1.5cm high (excluding the pin itself).

The bronze finish is clearly visible throughout. However, the pot metal base shows through in places. There is a kink in the pin, but otherwise the whole piece is quite sound with no repairs.

Delighted, absolutely delighted! Thank you very much.

Found the item a little on the expensive side and a bit disappointed that you were unwilling to bend a bit on the price of the Officer's Tunic Eagle (half the fun of buying, after all, is the haggling), but impressed by the speed of delivery and the quality of the item. Was well worth it in the long run...
