Jmme FJ badge

[Adrian Stevenson]

Hi Guys, here is a FJ badge out of my collection. I must admit that it is my favourite, despite it having a replaced pin (the badge came that way and it looks to be a period done replacement). The quaility of the badge is really nice, with a well detailed eagle and the badge is quite heavy in weight. I would guess is pre or early war? I bought the badge over 20 years ago. I think I paid about ******163;25 for it? The"story" that goes with it was that it was taken by a British Veteran in the Black Forest area in 1945. He said it's original owner "had lost all interest in it", a remark that you could
interpret several ways.
Hope you like it as much as me?
Cheers, Ade.

Let's see the back of the badge if you can Ade, then the more badge knowledgable visitors can help.

Reverse:

Hi Adrian

I would like to see the picture for reverse too. I got a "JMME" LW Para Badge which same as the type which Eric posted. My gut feeling and opinion to your badge. It looks different (whatever the eagle and the wearth) to the one posted by Eric and the one in my collection.

Cheers

H = 52,5 mm
W = 41,9 mm
Weight = 39,1 gr.

Ivan !
This badge is about 10 gr. heavier than the badge showed in Lorenzo`s JMME para badge thread .
About same weight that the 2 JMME Para Badge posted/ named by Yuri in same thread .

Adrian,

As other friends, I will wait the reverse but....I don't like it, mainly the eagle beck and the svastika.

Jan,

maybe you haven't seen but it was discussed time ago about the Jmme's like yours from a Lorenzo's thread, I think you can find it 2 or 3 month back but I am not sure.

I would like to have one the same of Eric's badge, it has all right characteristics.

Hi Guys, sorry for the delay, I could not get this pic to load up at all yesterday or earlier this morning for some unknown reason? Hope it has not come out too big?
Cheers, Ade.
