Please note this item is no longer available and you were redirected to our Archives.
A 65mm x 80mm black rayon base to a machine woven black shield, upon which is woven an inverted white spade head, with "46" and "2", both in red, woven to it. The use of a black, rather than an earth-brown, shield indicates that the insignia was worn between August of 1933 and April of 1941. The white, rather than silver, coloration of the spade head indicates that it was worn by a non-commissioned rank. The larger red number indicates the "Gruppe" (Group) that the wearer was attached to, while the smaller number underneath indicate his "Abteilung" (Section) within it. This arm shield would have been worn on the left upper arm of the uniform. Minor age stain.
