Volksbundpin (Hungary)

[cjmpaintings]

Can someone assist and tell me if this Volksbundpin worn by ethnic Germans in Hungary is real or a fake? the text doesn't seem to know if it wants to be thin or bold, so I'm not getting the best feelings about it.

Fake or not,I do like the look of it

Ges.Gesch. is a German patent pending mark , why would a Hungarian pin carry such a mark . Also I don't like the pin attachment .

As I understand it such pins were produced in Germany and distributed in other nations to the German populations. I have seen such pins for Croatia and Romania too, different designs on them though.

Hello, it is a post war fantasy badge.
Originals were only in red, with black enamel lettering. White inner circle with only a tiny gap in between the swastika arms.

All the best

Hello Casey
Anything with this style of pin attachment is going to be a dud.

The coffin shaped pin attachment is an instant sinker.
