A fine example of the SA Sports Badge in Bronze (SA-Sportabzeichen in Bronze), instituted by Ernst Röhm in 1933 as a physical fitness award for members of the SA and later the wider population. The design features a vertical sword over a swastika, encircled by an oak leaf wreath.

This piece is marked on the reverse with “Eigentum D.S.A. Sportabzeichen Hauptstelle” and produced by Berg & Nolte A.G., Lüdenscheid, a well-known maker of Third Reich awards and insignia. Retaining its original finish and showing honest age toning, it is a desirable and collectible bronze grade example.
