Funcke & Brüninghaus — U-Boat Crew Badge
The U-Boat Crew Badge is attributed to Funcke & Brüninghaus despite lacking a maker’s mark, based on the characteristic die style and known production traits. The piece has been gently bent by the original wearer into a slight spherical shape to fit the uniform more closely,
a feature often seen on field-worn examples. The surface shows signs of service use: wear on raised details and consistent edge rubbing,
while a substantial portion of the original gilding remains visible across the badge.
