    1. Interesting award. I too would like to know if it was awarded for combat. Don
    2. Nice crosses guys. I guess I will throw my 2d class into the mix. Don
    3. Perhaps it needs moved to the discussion area to give buyers a warm and fuzzy. Don
    4. Being old and being German doesn't mean good stuff. You need to study before you buy or find a dealer with a guarentee that will allow you to return things that are bad.
    5. A poorly cast fake that used a real badge to create the mold.
    6. Given the status of all the other badges you've shown I would need bigger pics to be sure on this one. Don
    7. Sorry, another fake. Same hinge/pin as the other fakes. Don
    8. Same technique as all the other fakes you've shown. The hinge/pin/catch are the same as the sub badge so it is probably bad too. The pins on all of these appear to be made from copper wire in someones garage. Not an approved TR technique. Don
    9. I doubt this one also. Is the hinge a seperate piece or part of the badge? Hand cast badges lack the qualitity of a die cast badge because they can't replicate the pressure used in die casting. Usually you will find tiny air pockets on the reverse and poor detailing on the front. Can we see all around views of the hinge please. thanks Don
    10. Sorry, not good. The lack of detail to the front shows it is a poorly cast fake.
    11. Pat, all your badges are fakes. Someone has taken you for a ride. Where did you buy these? Don
    12. I think this might be a casting from an original badge. Better pics of the hinge/catch will tell for sure.
    13. I have my doubts about this one also. Again, better pics are required showing details, markings etc... Don
    14. Those pins are not original to the badge. Can we please see better pics of the markings? thanks Don
    15. Need bigger/better pics to tell. Don
    16. Can we see better pics of the hinge, pin, and catch please. It looks to me like it might not be original. thanks Don
