Hi all, to celebrate the forum's upgrade I wanted to share this bandenkampfabzeichen in bronze that I finally picked up when my state re-opened. I've generally moved away from collecting Third Reich awards in favor of the imperial era, but once I got enough positive feedback I couldn't resist this one.
It is a type four with the rare cutouts, flaws in eye sockets, and stepped skull. There is a good bit of the bronze remaining on the back, but it is almost entirely worn from the front. The pin is bent and the clasp is missing. Regardless of that, it was a bargain and I am excited to own such a rare award.
