Third Reich : Luftwaffe Fallschirmjäger-Abzeichen Miniature Stick-pin Lapel-badge.

A 10mm miniature in brass in which the swastika appears like a ball in the eagle's talons. Whether this is due to wear or is an attempt to de-nazify it I do not know. The reverse has a long smooth stick-pin fixing. No makers mark. This has been in my collection since the 1960s and was acquired in Germany. Nice condition.
