Both the gorget as well as it's accompanying chain are made entirely of die-stamped steel with their silvering completely intact, a spread-winged Army eagle and both buttons are painted in a white radium paint, gray-painted ribbon banner with raised radium painted letters, the ribbon banner inscribed "Feldgendarmerie", gorget measures 75 mm x 162 mm, with a smooth brown-coloured leather backer, unmarked, 627 mm long multi-link chain, near mint.
Gorgets in the army showed a special function, and thus were only worn when on duty and when performing said function. With the exception of the Regimental Standard Bearer’s Gorget and the Feldherrnhalle Gorget, all gorgets of the army have a luminous paint finish so that they could be seen in the dark.
The Field Police (Feldgendarmerie) Gorget has a matt silver-coloured shield and chain, and a dark field-grey scroll.
