Kampfabzeichen der Kleinkampfmittel 7. Stufe

Hello,
I want to present a new piece of my collection - a small units badge, 7th grade, gold clasp with wide pin.

In know that this is not a 57er badge, but from my perspective very collectible and ultra rare.

The quality is very fine and every single tooth is polished, so I think it is one of the earliest afterwar pieces from S&L of this clasp.

best regards
Pattex

Thank you Jeff & Nigel, I know that Karsten had a second example in his collection several years ago.

But that's it, I never saw a third piece, either in silver or bronze.

What a fantastic pick up. I remember Karsten's piece and this will only be the 2nd one I've seen. Great job in getting that one. Nice to know once in a while something great comes up. Congrats!!

Wow, I missed this thread. Awesome example with wartime leftover stock main pin.

Amazing that they put so much effort and quality into a piece that almost certainly was never awarded in wartime. I wonder what they charged for it when they first made it.

Best regards,
