National Socialist Crafts, Trade, and Industry Organization (NS-HAGO) - The NS-HAGO was a sub-organization of the NSDAP, aimed at the commercial middle class (craftsmen and merchants). The badge shows a stylized winged hammer, on the head of which is a swastika. The hammer symbolizes craftsmanship, while the wings are often associated with trade and movement. These pieces were usually made of nickel silver or silver-plated base metal and worn on a long pin.
