Comment

Patriotic badge, handmade by patriots and worn in a hidden way during the occupation of the territory by German troops. This badge was made from a 5 centime coin 1930 (L#291-1, KM# 40).
Several badges, mounted in various ways, were made from different types of coins but mostly with the effigy of Grand Duchess Charlotte.
