1957 ccc

[Jorne Ubachs]

Hi guys,

I am looking for a 1957 ccc to include in my CCC collection. I am not into 1957 awards and have not much knowledge about them. I have spotted this one. What are your thoughts about it? Thanks!

Hi Jorne,

Damn, too bad you missed out on that one, it looked to be a very nice S&L badge in great condition. But there will be others my friend.

Here is mine, its the only 57er I own

@ Thomas ... that is one nice wide-pin silver CCC ....

[Jorne Ubachs]

What a lovely ccc Tom!

Hey Tom! Good to see you posting in this sub forum and GREAT to see you've got a small case of the 57er bug! That's a beauty of a nahkampfspangen with great craftsmanship and very nice patina!

Thanks guys. I can certainly see the draw to these early 57 badges, the finish, details and base metals used are just really nice and in most cases far superior to what we find on wartime badges. I would love to have a nice early bronze and gold CCC to go along with this silver grade, and unfortunately missed out on a nice, rare bronze Deumer a few months ago. The search continues, but that is the fun of the hobby anyway
