What kind of badge is this?
Hey guys, i have seen this badge but i am not sure what it is? I was thinking that it could be some sort of farmers union membership badge with the owners membership number (4838), just wondering if any of you guys can help me out please,
Thanks, Glen.

Hi Glen, it is a Deutscher frauenarbeitsdienst brosche.
Lots for sale online if you Google it.
The damage is going to hurt the value.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: What kind of badge is this?
It's a duty brooch of the Deutscher Frauenarbeitsdienst [German Women's Labor Service], the forerunner of the RADwJ.
A bronze brooch was worn by members with the rank of Arbeitsmaid, silver denoted a Maidenführerin and gold a Lagerführerin.
The Sütterlin text says "Arbeit für dein Volk - Adelt dich selbst" [Labor for your people - ennobles yourself] in the top part of the border, with the organization's name in the lower part.
It's missing its pin and for some reason it has a hole drilled through.
