The making of....a die struck insigna,buckle or ornament.

Absolutely amazing. Thank you very much for sharing with us. I guess the million dollar question is, how many of the TR dies are still out there.

You are welcome!
The one's I had were the die to make the officers belt buckle of railway personal, several sets of die's for the africakorps pith helmet, the Wolfsangel for the Flemisch SS , a very small WH type spread wings eagle ...that I never knew what it was ment for and 4 or 5 others I even can't remember !
I sold those on a militaria fair to a guy living in Czechoslovakia and the story goes that he is using them....???
I wasn't active as a militaria collector at that time.
An other story goes as well that the factory I bought ,use to have many more TR die's , but they disappeard long before I got there.
I just got lucky to find those I had because there got mangeld along with the 50.000 other die's ...

Thanks for showing us these, Kris !

An important lesson as to how almost all of the badges
we own and collect were made.
