unknown eagle pin

[Curt Steinbach]

Hello - Got this recently in a bunch of pins and have no idea what it is. For me it is too flimsy to be a cap badge of any kind but who knows. The height is about 28 mm.

Thanks

It looks cast. Could it be from a tinnie and the pin soldered?

Looks a bit like part of the autobahn pin shown here :-

Finish looks odd but nothing appears to be missing on your badge though, perhaps something to do with similar.

Regards,

It does not look cast, just punched/pressed metal as far as I can tell. The pin is just soldered on and that was why I didn't think it was a cap eagle because I can see that falling off in a hurry.

Pete, it does look a bit like the eagle there. Major difference being the swastika there is surrounded by a wreath.

I appreciate the responses!
