Never seen one before, so I would think its "rare"? Thanks in advance!

[Sergeant 08]

Nice silver item!

A typical gift for an officer (sometimes they got a goblet etc.).

[Eric Von Rader]

I would say it was an award or gift from graduating officers school?

[Don D.]

It says the Officer corps of the NCO School. Perhaps he commanded it, Capt Jaeger that is.

[Eric Von Rader]

Thanks! What does the lid USB initials mean? Or the B could be an R?

[Don D.]

Unteroffizier Schule Biebrich?

[Eric Von Rader]

Ah, logical! Are these "rare-desirable?"

[Don D.]

I don't know the answer to either of those questions. To me its not either because that is not my focus. Now, if you can find someone who collects those then......

Very nice, high quality presentation item, and a super display item.

[Roglebk]

Lovely! Anyone recognice the makers mark?

Great info! The engraving is what really excited me about the piece. The quality is just killer.
