WW2 German Wound Badge

[Bamcis]

I found a Nazi Wound Badge in a box at my grandmothers. Does anyone know about what it's worth or who would buy it? It's in really good shape given the age of it. It's a black oval with a wreath boarder. Has two crossed swords and a German helmet with a swastika on top. All colored black.

They're selling on THIRD REICH MEDALS.COM FOR GERMAN BADGES, MEDALS, AWARDS ETC for $35-75 or so, after currency conversion. I don't know if that site is reputable or not, just the first one I came across.

Once you get your 50 posts and are able to post in the classifieds I'd possibly be interested in it.

I have been searching the net and the one I have is in way better shape than the ones I'm seeing. Looks brand new. I guess I just want to know what I have before I go to possibly sell it.

Why sell it? Years from now it will only be worth more $. How did your Grandmother come to have it?

Years from now you can show it to your grandkids and tell a story. Can you do that with the $50 or so you'll get today?

Ok...off my soapbox!

I personally don't want to keep anything nazi related. My grandma had no idea where it came from. My grandfather fought in the Korean War so he didn't snag it off of a dead kraut or anything fancy. I see where you are coming from though. The rest of the box I am keeping lol.

Sometimes it's not something you were looking to collect, but something that found you.
I'd hang onto it, but wouldn't make it into a front door knocker! (keep it squirreled away)
