This isn't the Coburg glass creation that was the subject of the contentious Alexander auction of a few years back, is it? Was that one a square art glass creation?

Oh Erich, now you're being picky and mean spirited to us poor guys who cant afford the high end stuff you all are displaying. Even though that poor tinnie has more connection to the event than either the souvenir plate from an Alte Garde Treffen in Gau Bay-Ostmark or that Kreistag plaque that capitalized on the badge as a symbol of the city and have nothing whatsoever to do with the Coburg march or its remembrance. As a matter of fact, the only items pertaining to the event and its 10th and 20th anniversaries are the badge itself, the tinnie and that neat poster.
I'll just pick up my tinnie and go home.

Originally posted by M. Zimmer View PostYes, it was offered in an auction a few years ago, but I bought it by a collector friend.
I was wondering who ended up with it as a few collector/bidder were very displeased with how the auction bidding was handled. And that it was re-auction later.

Originally posted by ErichS View PostOh Joe, since I unfortunately no longer own a CB or tinnie, you’re now one up on me with the tinnie!
Ah so Erich........I had forgotten. Still it is interesting how the CB design was used commercially for other party events unrelated to the 1922 action or its anniversary celebrations. In a similar manner, Nürnberg and München capitalized on their historic party event(s). One would have thought the party would have sought to protect the use of this important party award.

Originally posted by JoeW View PostShould the event tinnie be included? If a recipient bought a plate and a plaque, I am sure he would have picked up a tinnie when he first got there, before the award ceremony?
Well I thought this was an interesting photo of OBM Schwede with the other Burgermeisters during the 10th Anniversary weekend. And he is wearing the 1932 Anniversary tinnie on his tunic.

It’s not the same piece. The one your speaking of is with Germania.

Coburg was very important for Hitler, in 15. October 1922 it was his first and only Street fight he was personally involved. Coburg developed to a example City for the NSDAP, First City Council for the Party, and fist mayor of the NSDAP in Germany, years before Hitler became Reichskanzler. And allways the most electors for the NSDAP. The two most important persons for that werde Schwede - here he started his political cereer- and the Duke Carl-Eduard who Never accepted that he lost his regency.
