(J1446) A nice example of a mid war Maker Marked Schwerin High Seas Fleet Badge in Paper Packet. The badge is the type manufactured from fine zinc which is then over plated with the gilt and silver, and as such shows some fine bubbling to the reverse. The reverse also shows the maker's trade name and manufacturer's name being laid out in the usual form in raised letters of Fec Adolf Bock Ausf Schwerin Berlin. The gilt to the front of the badge is virtually all complete as is the silver finish. This has toned over the years but it is not bad at all. The badge also comes in it's original blue paper packet with the name of the award printed in black to the front and the maker's name Schwerin Berlin to the back. The front has faded making it an off green colour but the back inside is a nice vibrant blue. Very rare to find in this condition and with the added packet. Only the second I have ever had in 25 years. GBP £750.00 (UK Pounds)
