Superb, WH (KM) 'Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch-, U-Boot-Jagd und Sicherungs-Verbände' being a (typical) non-maker-marked example in 'Buntmetall' (ie. 'Tombak') as was (I deem) produced by the desirable maker (ie. 'Hersteller'): 'Otto Schickle'

This is a truly very attractive - and just hardly- ie. simply never used- nor worn and very detailed and pronounced! - example of a so-called: WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch-, U-Boot-Jagd und Sicherungs-Verbände' (ie. mine-sweeper war-badge) being a (typical) non-maker-marked- (and actually 'high-quality'-produced!) example that is executed in multi-coloured, so-called: 'Buntmetall' and that comes in overall very nice- (I deem hardly ie. never used- nor worn- and/or still 'virtually mint'-), condition. The very detailed and/or pronounced badge retains truly all of its golden- (ie. silver-) toned finish and is executed in so-called: 'Buntmetall' (ie. 'Tombak'): it comes of course mounted onto its unaltered- and functional (flute-shaped and neatly vertically-mounted) pin and/or catch. The with certainty 'high-quality'-produced badge (that also retains its often-missing so-called: 'Gegenhaken') is totally void of a makers'-designation: it has, moreover, never been cleaned nor polished and is just a tiny bit dusty ie. dirty as recently found (as can be seen on the pictures). It should be noted that these WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch-, U-Boot-Jagd und Sicherungs-Verbände' as produced by the 'Otto Schickle' are not that often appearing on todays market and can easily be graded 'fairly scarce'. I deem that this 'vitually mint' and very nicely preserved example is accordingly priced! Maybe the best such example I had on offer!
