Luftwaffe combined Pilot-Observer badge – Friedrich Linden, Lüdenscheid

Luftwaffe combined Pilot-Observer badge – Friedrich Linden, Lüdenscheid. Early to mid war tombac construction FLL design ‘Gemeinsame Flugzeugführer- und Beobachterabzeichen ‘ silver plated eagle with frosted finish and gold finished wreath. Remains in very lightly to unworn condition and shows mint gold finish on the front, the reverse retains most of the gold finish. The rivets were probably lose and were tightened at some point in time. The eagle shows a slight dark patina on the front giving it a nice contrast with the silver wreath. Even with the tightened rivets an excellent looking FLL PO.
