Strange Tannenberg Badge

[Tom Yanacek]

Hello to all,
Has anyone ever seen anything like this before? Not sure if this is real or not, but it looks nicely made. I'm thinking that something this obscure is probably real. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you! Tom

Hi Tom,
Interesting badge to say the least. If I were to venture a guess it may be an early rally badge commemorating the Battle of Tannenberg (1914) & The Battle of Sedan (1870 Franco-Prussian War). At first glance I would have thought this
to be a fantasy badge but I am not so sure. If genuine I would say this is a pretty scarce piece. I have never seen this badge. Let's see what other forum members have to say.
