I found this at the scrap yard. I think the "M" stands for Kriegsmarine, can somebody help me?

Re: scrap metal find
Yes Kreigsmarine , looks like a tag or token.
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
Re: scrap metal find
Could it have been used to mark stores/loads for kreigsmarine, like those little Luftwaffe tags with the Gull cut into them???
Re: scrap metal find
I also think it's some sort of tag, like on this picture.
Re: scrap metal find
I'm certainly no expert but... the third picture shows that it's not perfectly round (yes?), so looks to have been cut out from a tag similar to the one in your last photo.
Either way, BRILLIANT find! I can't even find parts for my old Astra!

Re: scrap metal find
It's not cut, just a few dents.
Re: scrap metal find
My mistake. I'll look a little more closely next time. Just that we used to do that with varios waning tags / labels. Still a good find.
