SS Tuxedo Skull & Motto Breast Badge- GO or NO GO

[John Pepera]

Richard,

I am not an argumentative person and only in the hobby to enjoy and to attempt to have fun.

Please don't put words in my mouth.

Tuxedo breast badge.

I have a solid silver one and IMO it is original. It is marked .800 and is exactly the same size and has the same markings as the two aluminum ones I have found.

Peter, I am starting to wonder if there is anything you don't have.
Really nice badge! I have something extremely rare coming my way this week. Just when you think that you have it all, something else pops up and is often rarer than the last purchase. I think the very best part of this hobby is ripping the box open after the mail runs.
Anyway, I'll post pics when it arrives.

Best, Chris

Thanks Kevin! Could you please post a real nice, big closeup of the skull?
I'm dying to see what all is there.

Thanks! Chris

No big deal.

I know that John Pepera saw one of the same ones found at SOS (aluminum) I saw at nearly the same time....but we are getting older.

Hi John,
Re: post #26, what makes you say the badge was used for only about 6 to 8 months?

I would also be interested in the time fram these were used as it would help me about my Tux badge.

Cheers and thanks

I have never seen one of these before. Must be rarer than a SS honor dagger or a Dachau cufftitle.
