These are not just tinnies, they are the badges given to the participants of the Reichsberufswettkampf competition. In later years the winners won the Kreissieger, Gausieger & Reichssieger badges often seen on this forum. The participants badges for later years also became more elaborate.

Cheers

hi don
never knew that i already have 38/39 kreiss bages and never realised the connection ,so if these are for 1934/1935 and the kreiss/gau/reich badges started in 1938 what was used in 36/37

I probably didn't explain well, these are two different badges. The Kries, Gau & Reichs badges that we know so well were the winners badges. The ones you show are participants badges given to everyone (including organisers). I'll attach an image showing the participants badges for '37-'39.

It's not 100% certain if there was a winners award for '35 & '36 or not, but the one for '37 was a small silver cogwheel with the HJ diamond on it. Xen has one, so check out his posts.

There was a participants badge for '36 but it is very rare & images of it are scarce. I will not post or describe it for fear of fakers.

Cheers
