only a little mini...

...but i love it. When money is off there is always a little bit left to begin collecting the mini´s of my fleet
What i like on this is that it´s very fine detailled - size is 16mm.
Half cutted circle on the back.

Nice stickpin Rudiger!! The details are very good for a mini piece!! Looks to be an early one too!
It would be nice to have a stickpin and a mini medal to go with each of your KM badges!!
Great little HSF!! -Nigel

Nice detail on this mini Rudiger! Very nice!

Nice mini, Rüdiger.

It's interesting to see the "S&L" mark on halfway. I've not followed the dialogue about these marks, so I don't know what folks believe them to be, but it seems clear to me from looking at this piece that the "o" marks were applied to the base material before it was struck with the die, or at least before it was cut out.

Does that make sense?

Indeed a nice mini, Rüdiger.

Is there a way to recognize early mini's? Is the level of details and crispness important (as with honour clasps for exemple)?

Best regards

Nice detailed (and IMO early) stickpin.

I spended my collecting budget for this month and next month.
So I know how you feel, I did the same

Nice and crispy Observer mini there Luud!
I for one love the early mini's!
