Up for sale is an original WWII German Kriegsmarine Minesweeper Badge (Minesuchabzeichen), produced by Otto Placzek, Berlin.
The badge features the classic explosion plume over water surrounded by a gilt wreath and topped with the Kriegsmarine eagle. The reverse is correctly maker-marked “FEC. OTTO PLACZEK BERLIN” and retains its original pin setup.
Condition shows honest age and wear. The catch has been compressed/damaged, but the badge displays very well and remains a solid original example from a desirable maker.
A great addition for any WWII German naval collection.
