Oh boy that's a suh-weet combination Ralph!!
The mini is very rare, I've only ever seen a couple on other forums and never had one in hand, but the one above is a type that's cropped up before. Not a lot is known about them, the LDO number L/56 is actually for the maker Funcke & Bruninghaus and the badge appears to be made completely from buntmetall as opposed to the usual zinc, as it was a scarce prime material by 1943 when the badge was first introduced.
It's an absolute pleasure to see these two matching badges together, don't ever part them out mate, they just compliment each other so well even down to the matching patina, that's no coincidence believe me!
I can't add much more, other than they make a sublime little display together, bloody marvellous!!
Regards, Ned.
Thanks much Ned!
I guess I'll have to edit my post now, I guess I should have checked the LDO number instead of taking what someone else said for granted.

Both are indeed real quality & I'm all for items/groupings staying together. Ned you are very gracious! Things like this are a big reason for this hobby. True collectors, well done Gentlemen. You should both be applauded IMO. Stewy

I like to spread the love around.

I have to say, my largest single purchase to date.
Well worth it.
