Stuart, thank you again. This 44 is a nice one. It must be a Brehmer. As you have two of them, when you wish to sell one, please tell me.
Hort, you HJ Leader badge is a gem too. I like a lot. What´s its number?
Greg

[gauost]

Greg - It is a number and not a "B" - think the numbered ones are alot rarer than the "B",s???

Horst

[Gregorio Torres]

It´s one of the higger numbers that I´ve seen in these badges. No much more than this were awarded. I have the 8673 in my collection.
I think the B are rarer than the numbered. So, you can find more frecuently the numbered than the B in the market. But I haven´t the exact amount made of one and other. If somebody have please tell us.

When I was looking for one I was offered alot of "B"s but I wanted a numbered one - I think that the "A",s are harder to find -

Hi Stu,

That's a stunning group of Sieger Badges you have there. It seems to be growing and growing

To Horst: As far as I know there exist nothing such as an "A" badge in the Führersportabzeichen. Only numbered one's and the dress copies "B" pieces for the different uniforms of the owner.

Theo - I havent seen an "A" designated badge but in Angolia,s book For Fuhrer and Fatherland, Political & Civil Awards of the Third Reich he states and I quote" The reverse bore either the serial number of the award or the designatin "A" or"B" ..........".

hi
glad you like the badges.

even books make mistakes i was of the understanding badges with the serial number where the awarded basdge and the b was a replacement never seen any of these badges with a on the back,

Like Stu mentioned. It was a mistake. The same error you can find in Angolia's HJ books. These badges with an "A" designation do not exist. I only wonder were the author based this strange theory on? Has anyone figured that out?
