This is a nice – and 100% period! – ‘Germanische Leistungsrune in bronze’ that was recently dicovered in the Netherlands. The piece belonged to a Dutch Waffen-SS soldier and was kept as such for years. As more often seen on these original badges – there are maybe a handful surviving examples known world-wide – is this example somewhat damaged: one of the enameled runes shows enamel damage. This can of course be professionally repaired but it can also be left as it is now....it is IMO not that disturbing: most of the surviving and known original examples show similar damage.
Simple a very nice example that I wanted to share with you all.
Your comments are most appreciated!
