A Second War Croatian Naval Badge; German Made
A Second War Croatian Naval Badge; German Made - Type II, in silvered tombac, partially enameled, in very fine condition. This badge is without any doubt German made, and almost certainly by German maker JFS (Josef Feix & Söhne, Gablonz); pin, catch and hinge are of same type and construction as found on numbered German tank badges; JFS made a number of German badges during WWII, as well as buckles. Badges made by Zagreb’s Knaus are of more slender overall construction and pin assembly.
