$20.00

Kyffhauserbund (War Veterans Support Association) stickpin. This shows the old style insignia, before the association was taken over and sponsored by the Nazi Party. 17mm enameled shield on knurled stickpin. The shield shows the Kyffhauser Memorial. This memorial is on a mountain in Germany and was erected to honor Kaiser Wilhelm I, but also symbolizes a legend of German Emperor Friedrich Barbarossa. The myth says that Friedrich Barbarossa is magically hidden in the mountain and will come forth to save Germany in its time of greatest need. Didn’t work during the Third Reich, though! Good condition with hairline cracks in the white enamel. Condition II
