This came with a large group of medals/insignia I purchased a few years ago. Can anyone tell me what type of pin this is? I'd also like to know the value as I will likely put it on the E-Stand.

Looks odd to me i think it could be fake, the pin looks very strange

Hmmm. Everything else I purchased with the pin was real (I know that doesn't mean much). The pin does look a bit odd but the front appears to be very high quality. Hopefully someone knows what it is

Indeed a fake.
I seem to recall that these were turned out by someone like Delta International, maybe some one with an old catalogue can confirm this?

Probably the same people who are responsible for the Fake Party Badges with the M9/72. The pin attachments used were the same. There are a few Sympathy pins marked like this, small ones too, no questions, a bad egg. You can probably still pick these up on the net for £5,99.-Comment

"WWII Inc." also sold them for a couple of bucks in the 1970s.Comment

Disappointing to learn it's a repro/fantasy piece but glad I found out for sure. Thanks to everyone who helped me!Comment

As the advert says: if the swastika was blue, the front could have fooled collectors into thinking it was a Dutch NSNAP pin.
Fortunately the reverse tells us more!Comment
