apparently a rare badge, since no one will tell
Hello,
the only ones I have ever seen of this badge all seem to be ground dug.
It's not a badge I would particularly want in my collection
All the best

Wonderful find ..and it is a rare badge.
Unfortunately , it is a ground dug example but interesting no less.
Here is my example for comparison . That stylized Ges. Geschützt on the reverse is only seen on this 1938 Sudetenland badge and German patriotic badges from World War One as far as I have seen . I have been searching for the maker identity for a few years but to no avail.
Nice find ...keep digging !
That’s an interesting badge that you show Jimmy
All the best
Doug
Yes Doug , more like a tinnie with a sympathizer roundel attached .
You see them posted time to time but not a common badge to find in the wild .
Cheers !
The hinge mounting on the pin is quite unusual it looks more like a jewellery mount and quite fragile.
I assume it is a pin with hole mounting and the hinge is crimped in to place?
Another first for me
Yes ...more like a brooch attachment or Austrian style that we see on the various early sympathizer badges .
Here is a close up of the attachment on the Sudetenland 1938.
Here are a few examples from the same maker . All patriotic pieces from WW1 showing the same Ges Geschützt reverse markings . Whomever the maker was , they made some nice badges !
