Flatwire NSDAP Cufftitle

[Arran]

Hi Folks,
I've just received this lovely "Kreisgericht" cufftitle from Bill Shea.These were worn post-1940 by Political Leaders who were officials of the District Court. Versions also existed bearing the titles "Gaugericht" and "Obertes Parteigericht". The neat thing about it is that its construction is just like the SS flatwire titles with the 'salt and pepper' back that we see. I'm curious to see pics of others in peoples' collections, especially the two higher grades, as well of pics of any of these rare cufftitles in wear...

Cheers,
Arran.

One interesting detail is that the flatwire itself seems to be real silver (plated), which is unusual for insignia manufactured at this date. Does anybody know if they were also made using aluminum thread?
