Please post your HJ Pins and known makers!

[Mike Pinkus]

heres a few more i have found....
the blue enamel...considered to be worn by the marine branch of the HJ...marked rzm m1/52
the other enamel is marked otto hoffmann and ges gesch...and the painted one is marked m1/146 with no rzm......

update.....the blue enamel and the hoffmann marked pieces are to be considered modern reproductions//// no colored HJ pins are to be considered original at this time...

All Pins are subject to be discussed. This is one of the purposes of this thread... Personally I started this thread because I wanted to compare my Pin (first on top, page 1) to someone else's with the same maker's pin.
Mysteries like the blue Pin are being solved - maybe it's a good one or it is simply a fake - I don't know, but maybe anyone else does?
Does anyone else have an opinion on the blue Pin? Fake or Good?.
In closing, everyone else viewing this thread, feel free to post your HJ Pins to extend that list a little more....
Cheers
Rainer

Rainer I beleive there are doubts about Otto Hoffman?ges. gesch. as well. There is a thread somewhere on those examples somewhere too. Perhaps others will know more. Take care Robert

Thanks for the note, Robert - I'll mark the pieces in question in the first thread as soon as anyone has proclaimed a doubt about them. Anyone having an opinion about these pieces or if you have seen a thread on them, feel free to join the discussion and post links and pix of your own Pins.
Cheers

Rainer,
Here's mine. Can read the "GES.GESCH." on the bottom, but can't make out the makers name as it looks to be in the seal for the pin. Anyone else have a similar pin? Would like to know the maker.

[B. Hastings]

Here is the reverse. Sorry it isn't very clear , but you still couldn't read the maker's mark.
