Look what came in the post the other day!!!

It's about the size of a ten cent piece & it was either given out or sold at the ceremony where Adolf laid the corner stone for the factory in 1938. It's also when the project was officially given the name Volkswagen, up until then it was going to be known as the KDF (Strength Through Joy) Wagen.




and another view






Regards,

Matt.

Bugger,

Oh well, at least I have a genuine repo of a fake 😂, & no I didn't pay much for it, got it from a coin & militaria dealer in Canada, just stumbled upon it on egay one day.

Regards,

Matt.
