    Walter Buch's citation - along with other desirable documents - comes up at auction. Wish I won the lottery !

      Great looking bronze with textbook weight and measurements. RZM marked. Buyer will be supplied with interesting story of how this was obtained at Obersalzberg by a US vet and then sold to me. See pictures... Price on Request


      Does anyone know how much it sold for ?

        A nice portrait of Fritz Sauckel wearing his CB.

          Nice Erich, and his large GPB that's in my collection

            An interesting document sent to Ulrich Graf who was Hitlers bodyguard and who saved his life during the putsch. The letter is dated the 28th of Dec 1933 from the Braunhaus stating that Graf was awarded the CB and that the Urkunde for the badge was enclosed. This document is for sale on a famous UK dealers site.
            My guess is that this letter due to its date was sent after those CB recipients were requalified to wear the award.

              Man, not easy to locate. Possibly even reasonably priced considering what FS asked for the badge with a similar letter.

                The frenzy is over and it's safe to show the pictures now.

                    Posting these for DHF. Maybe he can fill us in on the rings history. This is a first for me!

                        I still don't see any pix from Andreas, but the Coburg Badge Ring from Erich is SPECTACULAR! Never seen one like it before! Wow!

                          Same here, although I'd like to see a closer picture of the ring's face.

                            These are the pics that Andreas was trying to post.
                            An interesting ring no doubt and it's the first one that I have seen. My guess is that it just sold at auction. I'm hoping Andreas can fill
                            Us in on the details.

                              It looks like a Coburg mini stick pin snapped off and stuck on an alloy ring?
                              At least that's what it looks like....

                                I agree.
