A Kriegsmarine Submarine Badge by C.E. Juncker

Badge in fire gilded tombac, solid construction, weighs 30.4 grams, excellent quality, badge retains nearly 100% of original finish, in extremely fine condition; scarce type. Footnote: Badge is unmarked, and sometimes referred to as “Unknown maker (1), variation (1)” – but based on the appearance of the eagle and set up on reverse, likely maker of this badge is C.E. Juncker Berlin; see page 56, Weber/Skora, “The Kriegsmarine Awards”.
