Attractive - and scarcely encountered! - national emblem (ie. breast-badge ie. 'Hoheitsabzeichen') as intended for the various 'Eastern Volunteers' (ie. 'Ostvölker-Truppen'), as executed in neat 'BeVo'-weave pattern

This is an attractive - and actually scarcely encountered! - national emblem (ie. breast-badge or: 'Hoheitsabzeichen') as was intended for the various 'Eastern Volunteers' (ie. 'Ostvölker-Truppen'), as executed in neat 'BeVo'-weave pattern, in overall very nice (ie. virtually mint-/unissued-) condition. This breast-badge - intended to replace the standard pattern 'regular' breast-eagle - was introduced in late 1942. Although definetely worn and issued, its use was not common practice, something that explaines it comparative rarity. This example comes in a 'virtually mint- ie. unissued' condition and will be hard to be upgraded: it comes as 'straightly cut-off the role' and just shows some storage-age only. Simply a very nice and fairly scarcely encountered breast-badge: it has been some time that I had a similar badge on offer!
