Hi Pammy, I have to say I've never seen this tinnie before. It's a really cool one, by Ferdinand Hoffstatter no less. I understand that company made pins well after the war. I always set a price break of over $50 US and under $50 US. I would think this tinnie must be worth more than $50. It's must be fairly rare. I would put some time into trying to buy it. I don't know where the item is located, but good luck! It would be a nice addition.

depending on rarity.

Hi, Pammy.

The 'tinnie' you have is what is referred to as a 'day badge'. They were produced for
Nazi rallies. They are not "awards", although a few select ones did become official.

Gau Partietag = 'District party day' for the District of Rohr, Aachen.
Hitler Ist Deutschland = 'Hitler Is Germany'..........
1934 is a fairly early date as Hitler only became chancellor in January of 1933.

I found a couple like your badge on the net, and apparently it is a 'commemorative'
badge made in 1936. I saw one selling for $119, another one, a bit rusty for $50.
Still another at $65, You have a good maker on yours. The 'West Wall' and
'Merit Cross' are common as you know. ( Search: "west wall medal" the
thread is by Brookes.)

I think you did OK !

Regards, Steve.

Thanks, Pammy ! ..............Have a great day too !

( At the price you got the 'practice bazooka round' for, when you finally
do sell it, you will definitely get more than you paid ! ! I'll make a wild
guess: about $40 at least !

)
