The red Aluminum disk is a vehicle license plate Tax disk. Can't say if it's original or not as I know that they have been reproduced in the past. The oval disk is a Criminal Police or Municipal Police member ID disk, but un-stamped with an ID number from what I can see. I would say most likely a repro as original are quite rare and valuable. There was an article on these in a recent issue of the Armourer, I'll try to find the issue number. The two round badges with the shovel heads and wheat are RAD or German Labor Front, again, hard to say if they are originals or repro. The three lozenge shaped badges are HJ I believe, originals? The round blue and white is RLB or Air Raid Protection.

Most are repro's IMHO, the Gestapo disc is heavily reproduced as are all the others. Gestapo and Danzig ARP badge are rare otherwise if original.... The HJ badges are most likely pukka, but not sure on the others....

As long as they didn't cost you an arm and a leg then that's cool isn't it
