Constructed of gilded silver, the obverse consisting of a round oak leaf wreath, joined at the bottom by a date of “1944”, overlaid by a NSRL-style German national eagle bearing a mobile swastika, the reverse marked “NSRL” with a silver content number of “800”, measuring 20 mm in diameter, weighing 3.2 grams, in extremely fine condition.
The Championship Badge was introduced in 1937 and it was awarded at an annual championship to an individual in every branch of sport. The Badge was originally established by the National Socialist Physical Training League (NSRL) and it was later adopted by the NSRL's predecessor, the German National Physical Education Union (DRL).
There are two versions of the Gold Badge. One badge features the year of issue on the obverse, the other does not. There is also a version of the badge that was produced out of cloth. The cloth badge was worn on the physical fitness kit of the recipient.
