EGA from early-mid 20's. Note the reversed hallmark at the botton of the anchor stock - anyone seen this before? s/f Darrell

These hallmarks are on the back of expert, rifle, and carbine bars. All three have the reversed hallmark on them teufelhunde though I do not know why they are.

Here is a flat brass two-piece enlisted cap badge with the Meyer Metal mark and regular shield. There is no mark on the back of the eagle. The hallmarks are stamped.

Another (Navy) CPO cap anchor with the Meyer Metal and shield hallmarks, similar to the Coast Guard version posted in post #12 above.

 

The shield is under the catch and only the top letter "N" (reversed) is visible. Again, with the chain style fouling, it has to be dated late '41 to mid '42 when the design changed from rope to chain link.

Here is a very rare Enlisted Veterinary Corps Branch Insignia, Type III, 2 piece, screwback impressed mark Meyer Metal, and shield, probably circa 1937-1945. My father, who served in the Veterinary Corps as a Food Inspection Tech, T5 in WWII, wore an Officers clutch back collar brass on his Junior Officer Garrison Cap, and I've never seen pictured another enlisted grade piece of WWII design. Perhaps some of you have one you could share.

2nd Lt., Meyer Metal, Shold-R-Form. Sorry about the photo quality but the curved pin only opens to about 25-30 degrees so it stays in the way.
