$135.00

Condition: Excellent++
Maker: M1/42 – Kerbach & Israel of Dresden

This NSDAP Membership Pin M1/42 is a gem. It’s made of Tombak, a brass alloy. The condition on the front is outstanding, with most of the original finish still intact on the metalwork, and no damage to the top-quality enamel. The red color used for this badge’s enamel is exceptionally bright, eye-catching, and more opaque than is often seen. It shows only minor wear, with a slight, even patina from age and use.  The reverse of this retains the original pin assembly, which remains functional and is still held in place with the original solder. Nearly all of the original silvering is present on the reverse, with typical age toning and patina. It’s nicely marked, with the round logo of the Reichszeugmeisterei and the maker code M1/42 indicating manufacture by the firm of Kerbach & Israel of Dresden. This attractive and desirable NSDAP Membership Pin M1/42 is in excellent condition.
