Stunning, WH (Kriegsmarine) 'Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch-, U-Boot-Jagd und Sicherungs-Verbände' (being a very detailed but non-marked example as executed in multi-coloured 'Buntmetall' as produced by the 'Schickle o. Mayer'-company)

This is a very attractive - and truly 'high-quality'-produced! - example of a WH (Kriegsmarine) so-called: 'Kriegsabzeichen für Minensuch-, U-Boot-Jagd und Sicherungs-Verbände' (or: mine-sweeper war-badge) being a very detailed albeit as more often non-marked example as was executed in multi-coloured 'Buntmetall' and that was (I deem) produced by the makers (ie. 'Hersteller') or: 'O. Schickle' or: 'B.H. Mayer' and that comes in an overall very nice- (ie. just moderately used- ie. worn-), condition. The award is (I deem) a fairly early-war-period produced specimen that has retained great pronounced detail. It comes naturally mounted onto its functional (and/or neatly vertically-mounted- and/or: 'flattened'- ie. flute-shaped pin-, typical catch and/or typical pin-attachment (as can be seen on the pictures). The piece was most certainly never cleaned ie. polished and truly retains most (ie. all!) of its golden- and/or silver-coloured finish: just some regular wear and/or age is visible. I deem that this particular naval war-badge is of the so-called: 'Schickle/Mayer'-design and can as such be attributed to one of these makers. Simply a very attractive KM-war-badge that comes in just a minimally worn and/or fully untouched condition: one of the nicesy examples I ever had on offer!
