JapanX Posted June 15, 2012 Share Posted June 15, 2012 I've seen one of these for 5 bucks on eBay. Unbelieveble bargain... From "grab on sight" series ... Such quality piece usually could cost you up to 500$ and even more... That is if it`s selling as copy :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck In Oregon Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Very interesting thread. I knew a collector in Baku who had a VERY large outstanding offer for an authentic example for years, subject to authentication by the state museum. He never had a taker.

GHB Posted October 24, 2014 Share Posted October 24, 2014 I have been surfing old threads and this was interesting to say the least. While it has taken us 9 pages to get here let me summarize so you can go back and scan (when this shows up a as a recent post): (!) It appears in conclusion that a badge awarded in 1932 based on a design first made./approved in 1932 should not bear a hallmark that expired in 1927. (2) A badge that fails to include all elements of that design can be at best described as an owners copy or collectors copy but for the flaw noted in (1) above. Based on the two conclusions above it would appear that the badge in question was intended to fool those of us in the collector market. GHB.
