This is a very attractive - and truly rarely encountered! - example of a WH (Heeres) so-called: trade- and/or special-career arm-insignia (ie. 'Laufbahn- o. Tätigkeitsabzeichen') as was specifically intended for an army: 'geprüfter Hufbeschlagmeister' (or: farrier with at least a one-years specialisation in this field) being a neatly hand-embroidered variant as executed on darker-green-coloured wool and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem simply never worn ie. 'virtually mint'-), condition. The piece is neatly hand-embroidered on a darker-green-coloured- and/or woolen-based background and shows a (detailed and/or hand-embroidered, 'horseshoe'-sign and additional star as both executed in golden-yellow-coloured linnen (as can be seen on the pictures). The patch shows an additional, greyish-black-toned 'backing' but is void of an inked makers'-designation-stamp (as is more often encountered). It should be noted that this is truly one of the most difficult to encounter examples: most collections do not contain this neat 'Laufbahn- o. Tätigkeitsabzeichen'. This is the first such rare insignia I ever had on offer. Simply a nice occasion to acquire a very attractive - and simply never used! - WH (Heeres) trade-/specialist-badge for a competitive price!
