Patriotic badge, handcrafted by patriots and worn concealed during the German occupation. This badge was made from a 1930 5-centime coin (L#291-1, KM# 40).
Several other badges, mounted in different ways, were made from different types of coin, but above all in the effigy of Grand Duchess Charlotte.Automatically translated
