Stunning - and rarely encountered! - (larger-sized!) enamelled lapel-pin: 'Der Stahlhelm' - Bund der Frontsoldaten (Sta) - Eintrittsabzeichen 1920' being an engraved example that comes in an overall very nice- (and/or fully undamaged!), condition

This is a truly very attractive - and very rarely seen! - larger-sized example of a neatly enamelled lapel-pin (aka: 'Eintrittsabzeichen') that was worn by a member of the organisation: 'Der Stahlhelm' - Bund der Frontsoldaten (Sta)' being an example that was issued in the year: '1920' and that comes in an overall very nice and/or fully undamaged- and/or untouched, condition. The badge on offer here is a very attractive so-called: 'Eintrittsabzeichen 1920' (or 'entry-badge') that shows a nicely engraved text and/or date ie. number on its back that reads: 'VI. No. 8 - 15-2-1920' (as can be seen on the pictures): something that is more often the case with these very early-dated 'Der Stahlhelm Eintrittsabzeichen'. The badge - which truly shows no enamel damage whatsoever - has I deem never been cleaned nor polished and still retains a superb and minimally darkened- (ie. tarnished) age-patina. It is also neatly maker-marked with a logo ('STH') and bears the usual 'Ges.Gesch.'-patent-pending mark as is more often encountered on these attractive SH-membership-badges. The lapel-pin comes naturally also mounted onto its fully functional pin- ie. catch(-set-up). Moreover, does this example shows an additional '935'-silver-content-marking on its back (as can be noticed on the pictures). A similar example is also figured in the 'Heering-Hüsken'-lapel-pin catalogue, wherein it is given a unique reference-number (4107J). It should be noted that this is a larger-sized version that has a diameter 3,5 cms. (for comparative reasons did I photograph this piece next to a reguIar one from the year: '1922' as can be noticed on the pictures). I deem this is an attractive and most certainly very decorative badge which I have priced according to its fully untouched and/or minimally tarnished condition!
