Veterans Association 25 Year Service Badge - Prussian

    Veterans Association badges, reunion pins and faithful service awards can be a lot of fun to collect.  They are very well made, come in endless sizes, shapes and configurations and most of all they are a super good value.  Veterans badges like this Prussian Landwehr Association below have some fantastic enamel work as well.  This particular badge has a 25 year device with the correct "safety pin" type attachment.  Suspended from this is a shield with a finely enameled Hohenzollern Eagle.  Attached to the shield is a double black and white ribbon with metal end tabs.  The badge is marked on the reverse GES. GESCH.  PREUSSISCHER LANDES KRIEGERVERBAND.        Excellent-
