Original donation pin from the Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge (German War Graves Commission), a non-political humanitarian organization responsible for the care of German war graves. These tinnies were issued during annual fundraising drives throughout the 1930s and early 1940s.
Rectangular badge featuring five crosses of varying heights, evoking military cemeteries.
Text reads “Volksbund Deutsche Kriegsgräberfürsorge”.
Zinc construction with original stick pin still attached.
Condition:
Moderate surface wear and patina; minor oxidation on pin and face, but details remain sharp. A humble and historically respectful piece from Germany’s wartime memorial culture.
