U Boat & Coastal Badges

[Troy101]

I don't know much about medals/awards and I just picked up a lot with these 2 badges in it. Are they any good, if so what's the average price for them? thanks

Troy, I'm never hopeful when I see a pin broken away at the hinge, the German badge makers produced badges of better quality than would normally see a hinge come away...There are other issues with the Coastal artillery badge as well. The U-Boot badge could be an original but it's not in great condition...I would like to see better and more close-up pictures in order to give an opinion?

here's a few more pictures. These came from a recent estate of a ww2 vet's widow, which makes me feel a little better about the source
