A German Second War Luftwaffe Reconnaissance Flight Bar.
A very late war Flight Bar with small circle mark at the very base of the eagle’s head on the reverse side. Tapering fluted pin, original hook and hinge. There is always controversy of the period of manufacture of these circle marked badges, generally regarded to have been produced by the Company Steinhauer & Luck, it is virtually impossible to define whether they were pre May 1945 produced or were produced after the end of hostilities to serve the desire of souvenir hunting occupying forces and because of the poor quality metal many are devoid of all finish, this example unusually has all of its silver finish remaining with slight toning,
very good condition £70-£90
