The Coburg Badge

[ErichS]

Another interesting photo from Coburg that I have not seen before. The guy on the top left looks like Hess but to my knowledge he wasn't there.

Still hunting for that bargain, Erich ?

Don't think there are anymore bargains out there these days but always looking for more interesting historical photos of those early party members who attended the event.

Yes, another nice photo from Coburg, Erich; thanks for sharing! I agree that the guy on the top left does resemble Rudolf Hess, and the guy in profile in the lower right box looking to his right resembles Dr. Friedrich Weber, leader of the Bund Oberland...though neither person is known to have participated in the Battle of Coburg.

These nice clear close photo's show this badge in all its glory. Yes the reverse has been altered but 100% in the period in my mind, that has caused some slight damage due to the heat of the weld and that's what has made one or two people question the badge. I would prefer to own this one than a mint one on this occasion, take a look guys......

A very impressive badge- Mil you should have ceased your chance!

And the reverse, further comments welcomed.

An original 1st pattern badge with an enhanced attachment. The replaced attachment shows how much trouble the recipient went through to make sure his badge stayed attached to his tunic.

Much better pictures as could be expected from the poster. Neat badge, even with the modification.

Here is something cool, a Blood Order holder, note the ribbon worn in non regulation style! Not also the Trager is in Coburg drinking a nice stein of beer and another of him with his lovely family..

Hello,

that´s still a very nice badge, even with it´s modifications. I would like to have it in my collection (but I think one is enough ...).

I like it very much, a rarity!

Congrats to the new owner.


Best Regards

Congrats, Jon, and as I often say, "This piece is in the WRONG collection...it should be in MINE!" How do you suppose it was mounted on a tunic; how would the rings be used?
