Luftwaffe combined pilot observer badge by Friedrich Linden, Lüdenscheid. Copper coated zinc wreath with riveted zinc eagle. Unmarked mid to late war production by FLL. Outstanding condition with all gilding present. Badge shows very small to no signs of age. The pin has been replaced in the past by a wartime flight clasp pin that was shortened. The original catch was resoldered to the badge. No other repairs, no damage.

Despite of the reverse set up, a very special Linden piece, I don't think I have ever see a better gilded wreath before. An excellent price/quality alternative for one of the most expensive Luftwaffe awards out there.

Stunning piece!
