    Der Stahlhelm Badge 1922

    Don't remember if I posted this one before or not. What does the engraving signify.....the date awarded or what?

    The engraving includes the unit the Stahlhelm League member served in during WWI -- in this case, "VI. Ns. 35" -- together with the date of presentation: April 2, 1922. Perhaps another viewer can decypher the unit code...?

        the engaraving actually means : the date when joined the shb these badges were granted in nov 1933, the top line means the group followed by the town enlisted then the members number.

        i will try post a pic to show what i mean as i have doc's with the supporting badges

                  Wf. stands for Westfalen, but that's the state district (LV = Landesverband), not the town, which is Lüdenscheid.

                      My Stahlhelm Badge 1924 is engraved VI No. 1645. I thought that the 'No.' part was short for 'number' but it seems I was wrong.

                        Can someone tell me what is denoted by Ns and No on the reverse of the Stahlhelm badges as shown above, and is the maufacturer N&L of the small Stahlhelm badge for wear on civilian dress known? Thanks.

                          The "Ns" represents the state district Niedersachsen while the "No" stands for Nordmark; I believe the manufacturer of the small Stahlhelm Member's Badge for civilian wear was "N.&H.” (Noelle & Hueck GmbH, Lüdenscheid) -- at least that is the manufacturer of the example in my collection.

                            Thank you - and yes of course it is N&H. I recently bought 2 from different online dealers and they were both by the same maker, and now I have spotted a 3rd up for grabs.

                            I was looking at another thread here where a member was askind aout his small helmet badge which has a 3 digit number stamped on the outside bottom edge of the helmet. I once owned one of these, but parted with it a long time ago. I should heve held onto it I think.
