Some good Souval badges, especially Kriegsmarine badges, tend to have that very long pin. It might be a good one, I do not have another Souval destroyer to compare to, but I basically like it.

What would you expect a fair price for this badge to be?

Thanks,

Around 130.- USD, but I would wait until somebody who owns a Souval destroyer can give you a sure thumbs up. I am just guessing based on what I know about OTHER Souval zinc Kriegsmarine awards and I have never seen a Destroyer by Souval.

Hi, here is my late war (note ejector pad marks on the reverse) zink Souval Destroyer badge. It has had the wreath re gilded I think? I bought this one back in 1979 for £16.

Cheers, Ade.

Here is the reverse. Different pin set up to yours.

But is has the same ejector pad marks!
