Nice badge-I've always liked the design of the Auxillary Cruiser badges. Hopefully, that isn't wee traces of zink pest in the photo?

Same badge as discussed from post #14 in this thread Nick.
I'm not sure but I remember something about Orth Hilfskreuzer Abzeichen always having a silver coloured ship? Does this look like it has been repainted?
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Yes same badge I bought from Gaz this week
The ships are not silver in my reference books, so I am not sure about that Adrian. I have just looked through a glass and it doesnt look painted

Hi Adrian, I have a worn zinker of this badge by this maker, and the ship appears to be gilt. I have shown it on the forum in the past.
Nice badge Nick.
Cheers, Ade.
