SA-Sportabzeichen in Gold by W. Redo of Saarlautern. Instituted November 28, 1933, the SA Sports Badge in Gold was a service award (as opposed to a sports badge) awarded to those whose receipt was tied to regular repetitive exercises, similar to a sports instructor. It is constructed out of a die stamped steel base that has been gold gilded. The obverse depicts an upright vertical broad sword, in front of a mobile swastika, which is surrounded by an eight-piece laurel leaf wreath that is tied together at both sides. The semi-hollow back reverse is maker marked: “W. Redo Saarlautern” and features the third pattern inscription, (1939-44): “Eigentum D. Obersten S.A.-Führung” (Property of the SA Supreme Command). The pin, hinge and catch assembly are all in well working condition. It measures 1 13/16 inches wide by 2 5/16 inches tall. A rare award.
