Gorget HJ

[Robin S.]

Hi Guys,
What do you think of this gorget?
Is original?

The Bann number is 569, Innsbruck-Stadt
The cloth on the back has been replaced.

Thanks!

Regards
Robin

At first glance it looks okay, but I think the tang in the middle,
which has the manufacturer's name, is broken off.
Further I would like to know if there is a sort of saw-construction
beneath the other tangs?
The backing color, observed, always was green.

Please make a photograph straight from the front. Now it looks as if the
symbol is too high positioned upon the shield.

569 = Innsbruck-Stadt, yes. Innsbruck-Land was 584

Hi Wilhelm,
thanks for your reply.

At this moment I only have these two photos, I requested better images.

The saw tooth construction is typical for all HJ gorgets I have seen (I have four of them in my gorget book).
It is a pity the middle tang is broken off. A real pity as it would possibly have had the marking CE.Junckers from Berlin. So, this cuts down the value considerable in my opinion!

Thanks Wilhelm.

Here are some new images.
