'Reichsarbeitsdienst der weiblichen Jugend' (or: RADwJ ie.: Womens Labour Service) so-called: 'Brosche für Kameradschaftsältesten' being a clearly maker-marked- and/or: '1941'-dated example

The neat - and nicely preserved! - 'RADwJ-Brosche für Kameradschaftsältesten' (or: RADwJ-membership-brooch for senior officials) has an approximate diameter of 4,5 cms. and still retains stunning detail and comes of course mounted onto its functional (and totally unaltered) pin and/or catch (set-up). The brooch - which is a regular-weight version as was executed in (somewhat faded) bronze-toned- (ie. I deem zinc-based-) metal - is as stated a '1941'-dated example that was (I deem) just moderately worn: it was never cleaned nor polished and retains a somewhat tarnished age-patina, showing some normal age and/or staining. A similar RADwJ-'brooch' is also figured in the Heering-Hüsken 'Abzeichen'-catalogue, wherein it is given a unique reference-number (3806C) and given an estimated value of 90 Eu. I deem that this attractive RADwJ-brooch is accordingly priced!
