M-017 Very Rare “Gau Baden”
Pinback Badge
This scarce badge, at about 1.75” from top to bottom, has a design
that closely resembles the Polizei (police) eagle insignia, being an oval oak
leaf wreath surrounding a political eagle (in the early style, like that of 1929
– though it has somewhat of a deeper chest area). The badge is relatively
flat, yet still has clean detailing. It has a nice nickel/silver finish, with
the inscription “Gau Baden” around the bottom curve of the wreath, in black.
The reverse has a nice patina and is clearly marked “Pr. Klett, Karlsruhe”.
The pin has a slight bend in it – hardly noticeable – which does not affect
its secure seat within the catch. A handsome piece!
