Description
This is a NSDAP Goldenes Partei Abzeichen (Gold Party Badge), with number #94736
The badge itself is a textbook so called “small Deschler” made badge with good light worn front.
The back shows that – as so often with small Deschlers GPB’s – the Original pinplate got replaced. Here it got replaced with the pinplate of antoher medal maker, namelijk that of J. Preissler of Pforzheim. The repair was periodically done and actually quite well, there is some remaining visibility of the old plate and some excess solder, but the new plate is attached firmly.
With the typical air hole for small Deschlers, that shows the hole originaly touched the pinplate (as it should!).
Although it has another pinplate this is a further a textbook small deschler Gold Party Badge in good condition.
The number #94736 has not been researched yet, but the owner was from the city of Reichenberg in the south of Germany.
Rare to find and it could be the centrepiece of any german world war 2 political medal collection.
