DDR NVA Performance badge & case
A couple more purchases made in recent months on eBay Germany... the first being a 10 year service award in silver. This is the fourth type which was issued between 1964 and 1972, the '900' mark is situated below the crossed laurel branches - a useful aid for determining the variant of badge. From 1973 onwards, these medals were made from bronze with a silver coating. The 'Urkunde' displayed with the medal does not belong to the group - although it is for that type of award in silver.
The second award is a cased 'performance badge' (Leistungsabzeichen Mit Etui) with the earlier fastener. These are now getting much harder to find... some cased examples being advertised at extortionate prices, but this one was another 'bargain'. Click on images to enlarge...
Cheers,
Steve
