Need Help on possible Luftwaffe scarf clip

Who knows what this is? The circular clip measures 2 inches in diameter and has an enamel surface on bronze. It is stamped on the reverse with the numeral “52” and “Berlin”. The boy in the image is riding what appears to be a German WW2 SC 250 bomb. The green tarnish spots of the clip side show that is an old piece; definitely original and not a reproduction. The clips make clear that the clasp was intended to hold a neckerchief or scarf in place. Does anyone know of a similar piece or a Luftwaffe unit insignia with a bomb-riding boy? (PS- I tried to post this question on 26.4.2017, but it evidently didn’t upload. So I’ll try again.)

German helmet with the name of the soldier written on the leather

Hi guys,

This is my new lid. Ground dug.
The leather inside was still in quite good shape after spending more than 70 years under the ground ! Amazing. We can see also.. the shadow of the decal insignia..

And there is a name written on the leather… something like Jg. (E?)g. Eigen. It’s hard to read.
Do you think we can find something about this soldier ? Any help appreciated. :)

Thanks !

I was on the Antiques Road show last sunday night

just for a nano second at the beginning, next (or should I say over Jon Baddeley), during part one of the House of senate London episode.
I guess there will be a part two, where they might show it all…

WW 1 EK1 Vaulted Concave

Ok I’m having bad luck with Third Reich awards but always been good collecting German Imperial items from the first world war, so I’m looking at this one to buy it’s for sale for three hundred dollars or I can make an offer. It looks real right along with the others that I have but I have never seen a Vaulted Concave EK1 unmarked 3 piece iron core and it is silver had it checked with a jeweler. So fake or real before I buy this which I don’t have this type that is curved. Thank you for your opinon on fake or real.
