Ferg1

Hi Brian,Ferg1 again,with the risk of upsetting you again,it ain't good news !! I am afraid this too is a well known fake of this rare badge.Ferg1

Hi Brian, sorry but that is way off being a real one !! It is a commonly seen die struck copy . Hope it did not cost you too much. Ferg1

Hi Steven, the issue badges come in various base metals,probably according to what was available at the time. I have stamped issue badges in steel,brass,tombak and neusilber!! It is nothing to worry about the badge looks fine.Ferg1.

Hi Steven, nice example of an issue piece,I would say out of C E Junckers outlet. Silvered tombak? Ferg1.

NIce Flieger-Erinnerungsabzeichen, looks 100% to me. Silvered Tombak I think ?? Ferg1.

Hi guys, I thought I would run this past you all out there and see if anyone has any ideas or info. I went to a small militaria fair today and fished out a small oval table medal from the dark corner of a dealers case. The medal seemed to be silvered bronze or tombac around 55mm x 35mm .The front shows in fine relief and detail Hermann Gorings coat of arms with 'Reichpresident Hermann Goring' around the edge ,reverse has beautiful engraving which translates roughly as ' For loyalty at Christmas 1935' to Karl Bolle . Then underneath Hermann and his wifes names. As you probably know Karl Bolle was a WW1 fighter ace and in the thirties was an adviser on Luftwaffe matters . Anyone seen one of these or anything like it before? I did not buy it but have the dealers number . Any clues anyone?? Ferg1.
