Eddie,

Interesting. Was it the case for badges made around the 20s ?
Because, if you look at more recent badges, made around 1937, they all (at least all I have seen, but I have obviously not seen ALL produced 1937 badges) have a 7 without the middle line.
But I agree, in written documents, you often find the middle line to the 7.
See attached pic.

That makes me think it could be non-German...
