Unknown Insignia

[Brian S]

Anyone familiar with this? I'm told it's for railroad senior officials. Can't find it in any book. And it's produced by Juncker with the Placzek.Berlin on the back.





Real quality badge, but for what and whom?

[James Noble]

Bians, I believe it a badge for civilians working for the Wehrmacht

[Brian S]

Thanks! I know it's not worth much, but it's very cool.

[Frank Heukemes]

jnoble is correct and WG stands for "Wehrmachtsgefolge".

Cheers, Frank

LW equivalent.

Here's a LW example:

hollow back.

No hallmark. "Luftwaffenhelfer."

[Brian S]

Very nice!

[Eric Stahlhut]

Hey!

Your example looks to be double hallmarked! Or am I seeing things?

[James Noble]

Eric, On the one I have the top line is F.E.C. O. PLACZER. BERLIN. I believe that's the designer's mark like
F.E.C. W.E. PEEKHAUS.BERLIN that you find on CCC badges

[Eric Stahlhut]

Ahh, I see!

Thanks, James. Very cool!

[Brian S]

Let me know if you ever want to trade badges! Yes mine is 'double' hallmarked. Almost identical to the hallmarks on the Blockade Runner badge.
