              Personally I do not like it.
              I think this type of badge never existed prior to 1945. In fact I think it did not exist prior to 1985. By 'this type' I mean the badge with no ties on its sides.
              Before anyone jumps out with the 'proof' that Forster badge is of this type in his well know pic (white tunic)- it is not. His badge survived and it is of Paul Kust variety.
              Bit heavy on the patina gel- spilled some on the swastika.

              cheers

                Odd seeing a .925 silver proof on a piece of German made silver. Probably not impossible, but from my experience I'd expect to see .800 (European coin), or perhaps .835, which is, I believe, the more commonly seen equivalent of a German "sterling" mark...Just food for thought.

                  very strange opinion I saw this type od this badge "from the ground",found near of Danzig in 90late...This rarest type of this badge was sold a many serious delalers around the world...and exists in very serious collections.You can see it in Detlev N.catalog also.

                    I think it's a very nice badge. I know that these so-called first pattern badges are faked but this one looks good to me.

                    I can't understand Matthews comments that this type is post 1985. A very nice example with lots of provenance surfaced several years ago in a grouping but it sold before I could get photos.

                    Matt, what evidence to you have to make this claim?

                      Altough I have only limited knowledge about these badges I have to say I like this badge a lot by its looks.
                      Kind regards,
                      Giel

                        Hi Matthew , this Alter Kampfer was find together with two other badges. Do You think , they are made after 1985 , too?

                        Best Regards
