I just picked up a bunch of tinnies and stick pins and this was one of them. I have been unable to find out anything about it. Has anyone seen this before and what kind of value do you think it has? It almost seems to be homemade. Its hard to tell what its made of. Thanks!!

It was given in Schalkau, Kreis (county) Sonneberg, Thüringen (Thuringia) when there was an assembly of the NSDAP 1935.

Hell Chris, take that thing away
it's giving me worse nightmares than my ex did
...........joking aside, amazing though it is to believe I have had one identical. It's actually around the $70 value............but I wouldn't buy it
Chris, it's actually a difficult Tinnie to find

Tinnie is a horror show
Hello Chris, I have cookies in my biscuit jar that have more detail than that tinnie
non the less it is the real deal, but you have to be an advanced collector like you and I are to realise it yes tinnies are like salted peanuts................you have to keep going back for more the Tinnie actually makes sense........if you use the Arist Pablo picasso as a comparrison, he could literally paint masterpieces, but often painted deliberatley amateur pictures to prove he could paint with a childs eye (mind) here we have a period Third reich Tinnie that literally looks like #####when in fact the manufacturer's could have made the tinnie an engineering masterpiece
Regards Martin
PS just found the identical tinnie in one of Reinhard's books
