Description
This is a large, ornate shooting badge. It is a multi piece affair. The main piece measures 2 3/4″ x 1 ½.” A crown is at the top. It then shows a man from the 18th or 17th Century, with an old-fashioned flintlock over his shoulder. His left hand rests on a sign that reads “1862-1912.” Below that is “XVII Deutsches Bundes u. Gold. Jubil. Schiessen Frankfurt a. M.” Attached to the central piece is a green silk ribbon. Another metal piece, a Prussian Eagle displaying the date 1912, is attached to the ribbon’s bottom. The main badge’s reverse shows it was manufactured by a Frankfurt firm. This very high-quality shooting badge is in excellent condition.
