    Kriegsmarine 1914-1916 Pin Help Please

    Guys, I got this pin several years ago and was recently told it was fairly rare. Can anyone give me any insight into what exactly it is, and if indeed it is rare.
    Also what kind of value might this hold. Thanks!!

      Please include a photo of the backside as well. (I suspect it's a vertical, safety-pin-like device.)

      I don't recognize it. Obviously it's Austrian and likely unofficial. For their capital ships perhaps. An unofficial commemorative pin of their navy from 1914-16.

      There are collectors for this sort of thing. $80-$300 (sorry about the range, but it does depend on what it is exactly and how many are out there.)

        Claudius,
        Thanks for the info. Heres a pic of the reverse. I do have several different pins from this era and am still unfamiliar with them. Anymore info on this pin would be helpful! Thanks

          If you have a look and see the "K. u. K. Kriegsmarine" items it seems that you will also find your pin

              Here on eBay Austria: 15,50 € (it should be the same pins as yours)

                Gerdan,
                Thank You. Those sites were extremely helpful. Even though it seems the Krieg pin is fairly common and not all that valuable, I did find one of the other pins that I have and this one is quite valuable Thanks again!!
