Printed cloth shoulder badge depicting the "777" mushroom-shaped emblem used by the Afrikaner Weerstandsbeweging (AWB), a far-right Afrikaner nationalist paramilitary organisation active during the late apartheid period in South Africa. The "777" symbol was adopted as a counter to the "666" biblical number, representing divine victory over evil. This example is printed in black on a khaki background and was intended for wear on AWB paramilitary shirts or jackets during rallies, security operations, and right-wing mobilisation events in the 1980s and early 1990s. Such insignia were produced in small batches and are now scarce due to limited survival and the controversial nature of the movement.
