Kriegsmarine Destroyer badge 1957
Manufactured by 'Steinhauer & Luck'.
Very good condition. This one seems to actually have been worn, some traces of sewing thread around the catch, so it was most likely sewn to the uniform.
Working hardware on the back.
This is from the very early production and the most sought after, manufactured around 1957-1960: round-wire main pin , solid block hinge, narrow flat-wire catch .
Heavy and nicely struck badge in very good wartime quality.
Early manufactured Kriegsmarine awards are hard to find.
