WOW...........This is either an ultra rare version (Which it isn't) or an outright fake (which it is) Description of the proficiency badge.......The reverse is stamped with the individual serial number 558. It is also RZM stamped followed by M1/15, indicating production by Ferdinand Hoffstätter...

Seller is asking €1000.- for a normal replacement badge? 1000 rubs? All the gilding has worn off the obverse, and contrary to the description, an identical one has been up for sale at MILI321 for nearly 4 years now with no takers at €199.- Have I missed something? I really though the Ruptured...

Look for opinions on the attached badge. Fake or real? Confuses the absence of stamps, except GES. GESCH. Sincerely, Alex

After years of talking about these badges, multiple threads and comments from many members and hours upon hours of research, the truth is rather simple. This thread has been pinned for easy reference. 1. The first manufacturer responsible for making the new shaped Hitler Youth Membership...

Hi,thanks for take me in :),here is my Reichssieger 1943 badge to share.

Hi there, I have this HJ badge, is it OK? Thank you for comments

I know it's not HJ but this one is wrong - surely?

Hi gentlemen, I become recently all a lot of insignas. (see photo). In this lot is a HJ membership badge marked : Ges. Gesch. RZM 90. The badge is smaller than usual badges: 22,8 mm X 12,8 mm. What is your opinion about this badge? Thank you for replies. Best regards from Alsace , France. Carfin.

I missed the lot ... but ended up getting the one from that lot that I needed.

Here are 2 pins I picked up cheap at auction. Hope they are good ?

Hello all, I was unsure where else to post this. I am currently doing some minor research on a family member, I recently found this portrait picture of him while in the HJ. Could anyone help me with some identification on him? I'm thinking the triangle is saying "Sud Hochland" which would...

Hi All, I was wondering if you could tell me what you think about this HJ badge, marked 26 on the rear. Is it an authentic, pre-1945 badge? It measures approx 25mm. Many thanks in advance! All the best, Rob.

It never ceases to amaze me how they get away with it.....im embarrassed to call myself a dealer :angry:

Hi all, I am new to the forum and have a question. I specifically collect pieces made by two makers; B.H. Mayer and Klein & Quenzer. I am currently trying to find out for certain if B.H. Mayer made a HJ Diamond membership badge and a N.S. Frauenschaft badge. Can anyone confirm for me if they...

Dear all (and especially at Jo), :help: I noticed that the Hoffstätters with FHB maker mark are mentioned in the thread "How many makers of the Hitler Youth Honour Award were there". Are the FHB maker marked badges considered as legit? The used digits are a match with the 'normal'...

Just found these images on a HD i hardly ever use, so no idea how old they are or where they came from. Seeing as we started keeping tracks on the numbers a while back, when i found these, it jumped out at me like a thing that would jump out at you, if if wanted. A jumping thing. Kangaroo or...
