          The flare looks to have some nice worn highlights. Does the wreath have any wear at all?

            Nice condition standard buntmetal Schwerin minesweeper. Not much you can say except, nice badge.

              Hi Jeff,

              I can only agree, a nice lightly worn original Not that easy to find with good percentage gilding remaining.

                  Is it my imagination, or is the spout "doubled"? Compare to a couple of other Schwerins. I don't think I have seen that "double-strike" before on a Schwerin.

                      Hi,

                      Lorenzo, maybe it's not double-striking in this case but indicative of poor alignment of a trimming die?

                      Regards

                        Hi Mike. Yes it could be that, but the excess material seems rather large for flashing. Hard to say for sure from the pictures alone...Lorenzo

                            Agree with mike on the alignment, I have seen this on other schwerin badges in particular a 1st E-boat
