    Kriegsmarine Breast Eagles (various). Help with identification please.

    Hi,
    Can anyone please help identify the Kriegsmarine breast eagles attached. They had been stored away for many years and I picked them up in a box of genuine Kriegsmarine items. I'm sure they are in order because there was also some documentation from a relative of a WW2 German sailor.
    The condition of all of the eagles is very good/exceptionally good as can be seen in the scans
    Any help identifying these eagles would be most welcome. (I only bought them to sell on, so any idea as to value would be very much appreciated).
    Thanks in advance,
    Terry

          The metal one with the prongs is interesting
          Give a man an opinion and you feed him for a day,
          teach a man to use the "search" function on the WAF and you feed him for a lifetime.

              Yes and there is also a larger breast eagle of that exact "simily embroidery" pattern as well! So, with a bit of luck (the cap eagle like yours is the hardest one to find IMO) you can have the complete cloth mounted metal insignia set
              Best,

                I knew I had these somewhere in my archives...
                Here attached are the breast eagle and the cap wreath & cockade that match this cloth mounted metal cap eagle. The wreath & cockade exist cloth mounted & without cloth backing but the 2 birds are always cloth mounted

                Great little bird!
