JMME Recon Clasp in Gold - Finally

[rfleming32]

It has taken longer to find a gold reconnaissance clasp to complete the observer clasp series than anticipated. I finally found this JMME to finish off the basic group. It is chunckier than most clasps weighing in at 26.4 grams but appears to be what is expected of a Jimmy clasp. Looks to be a worn piece. It is thicker than most clasps. What do you think? Good or bad?

Beautiful clasp. The photo says "hearty greetings" from Reinhard dated May, 1942, but that's all I can decipher

Indeed a fine clasp Richard...you have done well again
Was the lovely photo acquired with the clasp too?
Furthermore, the text should be:

Herzliche Grüßen an meine Küsinchen!
Reinhard.
Mai 42.

which means "Cordial greetings to my niece!".

Cheers,
Laurens
