Hi there,
i'm emailing all you collectors regarding a NSDAP Party Badge that i acquired from an Ebaye seller. I suspect that its an original piece but im open to any comments from you guys whether if it IS really is an authentic piece and the current market price for it. I bought it for US$40. Really appreciate for any help given. The statistic on this badge is that:-
1)Pre-1945 government party pin
2)An inch in diameter - the back is not flat but concave.
3)There is a small wartime repair to the white enamel
4)The clasp is in working order, and it attached to the base with a fine metal base plate
5)The back has a slight bronzed look to it, and the three lettered licenced product logo is present
6)The maker mark of M1/72 is quite clear. The M1 represents a metal pin, and the 72 is for the firm of Franz Lipp of Pforzheim.
The reason that i suspect it to be original are:-
1)The back has a slight bronzed look to it, and the three lettered licenced product logo is present (note: the Z has a line throught it...a good thing)
2)The front has fine translucent red & all lettering is correct...including "O" that are perfectly round...another good sign!
Well any comment guys???Market value????See the pics below.
