<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Barn Owl, post: 521885, member: 4864&quot;]I like collecting random imperial badges and bits. Sometimes, I can identify them with Google, but in this case, I&#039;m baffled. The back of this badge appears to be gilded, and there are some remnants of gilding remaining on the top of the brooch, but not enough for me to tell with any certainty if it was once gilded. The top of the t-shaped portion rests on the barbell, putting it at an angle. These pieces appear to be original to the badge, and there is no sign of visible solder. Approximately 4 cm in diameter.</p><p><br /></p><p>Edit: Interestingly, upon taking a closer look at the badge, it seems as though there are two different kinds of leaves used: On the right, we have the oak leaves and on the left is the laurel leaves, similar to <a href="http://derrittmeistermilitaria.com/fltbdges.htm" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://derrittmeistermilitaria.com/fltbdges.htm" rel="nofollow">http://derrittmeistermilitaria.com/fltbdges.htm</a></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]167099[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]167100[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]167101[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]167102[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
