Title Plaque for army marksmanship lanyard, 2nd type
Nationality German
Period c 1936-45
Sold

Marksmanship lanyards, of semi-bright aluminium cord, had various designs (eg the army eagle in a shield, etc) and were awarded for shooting proficiency. They were worn on full dress uniform. This plaque is missing its lanyard.

It is in fairly good shape, although two of its fixing pins on the reverse have been broken off and there is some wear and tear evident on the sword blades of the design.

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