WWII GERMAN MOUNTED POLICE PATCH
This is a truly scarcely encountered, so-called: Schütz- ie. Ordnungspolizei-related, hand-embroidered and police-green coloured, woolen-based sleeve-badge (or Sonderdienstabzeichen), as intended for a: Berittene Schutzpolizist im Schutzpolizei o. Gendarmeriedienst, in very nice, IMO mint-/unissued condition. The small-sized and round-shaped badge - which shows two crossed flag symbols executed in silver thread on a (Polizei-) green coloured background that is backed with black-coloured clothe - shows simply no wear whatsoever and cannot be upgraded. The badge is beautifully hand-embroidered and shows extraordinary detail and craftmenship. It should be noted that all these Polizei so-called 'trade- and special career' arm-badges (or Sonderdienstabzeichen) are very hard to encounter and can easily be graded scarce. This particular example - which was specifically intended for mounted police troops - is truly hard to find!
