Kriegsabzeichen für Hilfskreuzer - Auxiliary Cruiser War Badge.

[John Brandon]

Thought you may like to take a look at a couple of recent finds. The Junkers Auxiliary Cruiser is fresh to the market, and the Coastal is Tobak as well....... and a Schwerin!

Now if only I can locate a schwerin Cruiser badge

The Juncker HK award looks just fine to me.

The Schwerin Artillerie badge is original also but I wonder if the wreath has been refinished ?

I can see considerable wear on the gun and the housing,right down to the tombak basemetal but the wreath shows hardly any signs of wear at all.

I may be wrong,just what i see from the images provided.

Regards,Martin.

Thanks Martin. I know they are both original badges, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with either badge, apart from the Coastal having been cleaned ...... a lot!

It's the angle I took the photo at, gives it a funny look

I had no question about the originality of both badges John...But thanks for the input in regards to the condition of the CA.



Cheers,Martin.
