M1/136/15

[Ray F]

Hi all,
I have just bought a nice NSDAP cap wreath and after it arrived I noticed the maker's mark on the back. It is: M1/136/15
Now I understand that the wreath was made by Salcher & Sons of Wagstadt in the Bohemia Moravia Protectorate.......but can someone please explain the last numbers meaning? (the '/15' at the end). No big deal but just curious!
(As a bye-the-bye, the centre roundel was made by Deschler)
Thanks in advance

Interesting, Pascal. The maker mark on my example is in RAISED lettering. You're friends example is stamped IN (Depressed).
Must be 2 different manufacturing methods.

Markings

Not a standard RZM code that I know of. It would normally be marked M1/136. Besides, if it was an RZM code, the "RZM" logo would be present.

My apology. Once I looked closer, that circle appears to be an RZM mark. Don't understand the extra number, though.

Ya beat me to it haha! I was just gonna say that there IS an RZM stamp also above the maker mark.
I have seen mention of this type of 'extended' maker marking, but I can't for the life of me remember where I saw it or what it indicated! (it's an age thing! lol)
