looks ok to me.
Hello,
I owned one of these years ago and your example looks fine. They found several of these 25+ years ago that were never issued and this may be one of them.

Yes looks to be a good one
Thanks guys
Hello lucabrnroma,
this Kyffhäuser gorget is genuine and absolut great.
I have a gorget with a 25 Years sign.
What makes your gorget more valuable is the case...if it's the original.

September 11, 1938 the 1st pattern insignia was to be replaced by the later 1938-version (as which is
seen with this nice gorget).
Remarkable are the oval and round cloth parts at the reverse. It seems that the cloth partly was
removed, to replace the 1st pattern symbol in the 1938-pattern and later the pieces of cloth were
glued on again.
Upon the arm the special oval flag-bearer's patch was to be worn.
Drawings as shown in my gorget-book with the 1st and 2nd pattern symbol/gorget. The caption
in German is included.
thanks all...
Wilhelm..so the gorget has been "updated" to the new model...this decreases his value ?...thanks for the interesting picture
Decrease the value, why? If I hadn't told, you would not have known!
The section for veterans of the Reichskriegerbund in my book is about 29 pages.
I had more material, but enough = enough! Otherwise is would have exceeded
the 704 pages as it has now!
For many the book is difficult, as it is in German texst. It is available at VDMedien.de
oh thanks very much... you wrote a book,,,you're a great expert...
