            Milch's baton was unscrewed before as shown in this photo, probably to remove the damaged velvet.

                                Chen, you say that the baton selling at Hermann Historika should be at the Smithsonian. Buy it, and put it there. They were offered, and they passed on it. They should have been interested in it, and have all the money they need to make anything happen.
                                It's a great piece of history, more then deserving to be on the cover of Hermann Historika. I hope it brings what it is really worth, historically, and financially. It is the last one to be discovered. It will be the 3rd one to ever sell. And, he was higher rank/position, then any other German in the past, as he was the Supreme Commander of all German forces, Army, Navy, and Air Force. So that makes it extra special, on top of already being ultra rare and special.
