A couple of Dynamo honour badge groupings here. The especially interesting thing with both is that, at the Gold level, the documents are hand signed by Minister Mielke.
This first group belongs to Friedrich "Fritz" Neuholz and contains full sized badges, miniature badges and documents for all 3 levels. The Bronze badges were issued in 1961, the Silver in 1968 and the Gold in 1977. Note that the Gold badge has it's original hard case (the miniature is pinned to the inside). Compare Mielke's actual signature on the Gold doc to his stamped signature on the Silver. While the tri-coloured flag forms the base design of earlier badges, the badges issued after 1973 had the red flag.
