Appearance
1st execution
The badge of honor of the 1st version from 1955 with a height of 24.5 mm and a width of 39.4 mm shows a waving colored enameled state flag of the GDR, whereby the state coat of arms of the GDR cannot be seen and in its place the logo of SV Dynamo is emblazoned, which extends over both the upper and the lower edge of the flag. At the bottom of the flag three oak leaves can be seen pointing to the left, above which a banner with the inscription SV DYNAMO can be read. The small space between the oak leaf branch, the writing tape and the flag is broken through. The back of the badge is smooth and shows a horizontally soldered brooch pin and a stamped or engraved award number. The miniature also handed over with the certificate is of the same quality, 24 mm wide and 18 mm high.
