The SA Treffen Braunschweig 1931 badge carries the reverse marking RZM M1/17, identifying the manufacturer F. W. Assmann & Söhne, Lüdenscheid. Made of solid stamped zinc, it is heavy and durable, and significantly rarer than the aluminum versions of the same badge.
The surface shows natural age patina and period wear, while the die features remain well preserved. Historically, the badge commemorates the major SA rally and march in Braunschweig on 17–18 October 1931 — one of the most significant mass demonstrations of the SA before the Nazi rise to power. The event played an important role in strengthening the SA’s public presence, and the badge was later officially recognized as an award-level decoration in the Third Reich.
