    Help Identifying Tinnies / Stick Pins?

    Hello all,
    I just made a large purchase ofvarious items from a WWII Vet. I received approximately 37 tinnies/stick pins fromthe vet. He told me that he was an engineer and when the allies moved into Frust (I think) the German Civilans threw their tinnies/stick pins into a fresh water resevior as they fled. He later did some work on the fresh water resevior and thats where the tinnies/pins came from.

    Anyhow, I bought the tinnies, not the story. I posted some pictures though not that great. Any information would be greatly appreciated since I know nothing about tinnies/pins. If anyone sees any rare ones could you let me know that would be great. If someone might be able to give me a ballpark value to that would help me because I have no idea at all what these things are worth, maybe nothing I don't no? Thanks
    Warm regards,
    Steve

                  I like your 33 RPT Badge. I think it's a great looking badge!

                    Hi Steve,

                    Nice haul! Here are a couple of ballpark values on the Reichsparteitag items..

                    #4 upper left Reichsparteitag 1938 - looks like $20-$25 in that condition.

                    #4 lower left Reichsparteitag 1933 - $70-$90, depending on if the pin has a nice mount with maker's mark.

                    #5 Reichsparteitag 1935 - $35


                    #2 - the three gray shields on the bottom - do these have pinbacks? They look like souvenir walking stick shields to me.

                    Regards,
                    Greg

                      Hello,
                      Thanks for the replies. Are there any good books out there that show pictures of a lot of tinnies/ stick pins/maybe with a price guide? Also, all of the pins/tinnies have pins on the back and none are broke and many are RZM marked. Anyone know anything about picture #7 and #8? Reward offered

                        Like I said in the email I sent you with exception of the 1933 Reichsparteitag tinnie which I stated is worth about $70 all the rest of your tinnies are in the $15 to $40 range depending on condition. As far as books on tinnies your best bet is Reinhard Tieste's 2 vol. set.
