Costa Posted November 20, 2014 Share #4 Posted November 20, 2014 I PREFER THEM TO BE MARKED STERLING ON THE REAR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted November 20, 2014 Share #5 Posted November 20, 2014 There is a lot of WW2 insignias that are not sterling marked. here is one.....Most likely silver and German made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobza Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share #10 Posted November 20, 2014 Thanks so much for the comments and opinions . I have another one but I've never seen this tacking - German made. Is it metal or silver? Thank you Lubos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarbridge Posted November 20, 2014 Share #12 Posted November 20, 2014 Hard to tell about being sterling. ..I would guess not... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tarbridge Posted November 20, 2014 Share #13 Posted November 20, 2014 Lubos, You have to keep in mind that because the War ended in 1945 the style of badges would not change.A company would not change a style of manufacture or certain hallmarks for that fact.Medic badges,wings,insigina,cib's,etc. could have been made in the same style and hallmarks years after the War's end.So,at times its hard to say 1943 or 1948 as the year manufactured. Your Poellach German made badge is a case you can say post war made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobza Posted November 24, 2014 Author Share #14 Posted November 24, 2014 Hi Robert, thank you for your advice. I thought that it is post war but it had broach that I´ve never seen before so I took it. Don´t you know how common are these badges? Is this one more attractive to collectors than the two WWII which I posted on the beginning of the topic? Thank you very much. Lubos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doyler Posted November 24, 2014 Share #15 Posted November 24, 2014 If you collect variations any theatre or foriegn made badges are more difficult to find and desirable. I personally see more german made CIBs the the medics badges.Yours is a great piece.Thanks for posting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KurtA Posted November 24, 2014 Share #16 Posted November 24, 2014 . Don´t you know how common are these badges? Your Poellath-made CMB is very scarce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
