WH (Luftwaffe) 'Fallschirmschützen-Abzeichen' (or: paratroopers-jumpbadge) being a maker- (ie. 'B&N - L'-) marked- and typical zinc- (ie. 'Feinzink'-) based example by: 'Berg u. Nolte'

The attractive - and actually nowadays truly not that easily found! - mid- (ie. later-) war period- and/or detailed war-badge (ie. 'Fallschirmschützen-Abzeichen') has just been moderately worn and comes naturally mounted on its fully functional (and fully unaltered!) pin- and/or functional catch (ie. typical catch set-up). The award - which is clearly used- and or worn - shows a 'separately'- (and/or detailed, golden-coloured eagle-device attached (by means of two firmly attached- (and unaltered!) rivets as is visible on the back. The badge truly retains most of its period-applied golden-toned finish and does show a minimally tarnished- (ie. typical zinc-like) age-patina as is more often encountered on these desirable Luftwaffe war-badges. The badge shows a clearly-present makers'-mark-designation (ie. 'B&N - L'-logo) and is in all respects thus an example that can be attributed to the desirable maker: 'Berg u. Nolte' as was based in the town of Lüdenscheid: the award shows naturally all the specific details as known for a genuine paratroopers'-badge by this particular maker. The piece is just minimally stained ie. dirty but has I deem never been cleaned: the greyish-coloured wreath and/or (bright!) golden-coloured eagle-device both retain a nice albeit minimally tarnished appearance. This example was never in collectors-hands and originated from a private-household in Germany: it came together with the cloth 'Fallschirmschützen-Abzeichen in Stoff' which I offer under number: #72432: both awards were worn and used by the same FJ-soldier. I deem that I have priced this attractive 'Fallschirmschützen-Abzeichen' according to its comparative scarcity and/or unmistaken desirability!
