The attractive - early-period and unusually seen! - 'Nationalsozialistischer Kriegsopferversorsung'- (ie. 'N.S.K.O.V.'-) related 'day-badge (ie. 'tinnie' or: 'Veranstaltungsabzeichen') is executed in silverish-coloured and/or (I deem) tin-based so-called: pot-metal: it shows some minimal wear and/or moderate age (but has never been cleaned nor polished and retains a nicely preserved, age-patina). The oval-shaped day-badge comes naturally mounted onto its functional pin- ie. catch set-up and shows some minimal age- and/or staining (as can be seen on the pictures). The 'tinnie' is quite detailed and shows an illustration of N.S.K.O.V.-symbol coupled with an illustration of 3 marching soldiers and the text and date as mentioned above. It should be noted that all 'N.S.K.O.V.-related tinnies that were intended to commemorate an event at towns'-level (such as the piece on offer here) saw much more limited usage and can easily be graded 'fairly scarce'. Of course, did I price this attractive - and with certainty not that often seen! - example accordingly!
