John! I've found Gordon Williamsons topic http://gmic.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=1824 , but my clasp was called a fake 2 hours ago at Russian forum. So why i want to be absolutely sure.

The mm sounds a little strange

giorgio

A wellknown fake . UBoot badge mm Juncker

Dear Gordon

Many thanks . I add some pics , hoping they will help you

Looks like a very nice (and rare) early Tombak piece by Klein & Quenzer. I've only seen a couple of these very hard to find badges.

A full on shot would be better as this is at a slight angle and could possibly be W?chtler & Lange but my bet would be K & Q.

Dear Gordon

Many thanks . I add some pics , hoping they will help you

Hello !

In my opinion signed by KK Mohlmann . Right ?

Many thanks

In any case a much nicer, and scarcer badge than the Schwerin which are quite ugly and quite common. I would much rather have one of these than a Schwerin.

Dear Gordon

I agree . I don't like Schwerin UBoot badges . In my opinion Juncker , Hymmen or Zimmermann are the most desirable badges

Regards

giorgio

Good original badge but definitely not Schwerin. As you suggest,most likely a Juncker type.

Dear Gordon

Many thanks . Sometimes also the most recognized experts make a blunder .

Hello !

I have bought this badge from a weelknown German dealer . The COA relates " unmarked but Schwerin type " .

In my opinion the badge seems rather a Juncker or Hymmen type .

How does it seem to you ?

Many thanks

Could be OK but its not the normal Souval setup. There would normally be a raised rectangular positioning mark visibleat the top of the badge ( into which the hinge is set), and the retaining hook would usually be on a small disc.

Dear Gordon

Many thanks for your advice .

As to the Souval UBoor badges , marked with round letters , I have come across two types.

a- the plaque of the hinge seems soldered on a lock slot machined on the badge. The catch has a round base. Almost always there is an excess of soldering .

b- the plaque seems to be soldered to the badge directly ; the trimming is unfinished , it shows some flashes.

Probably it risults in the deterioration of the processing during the wartime

yours sincerely

giorgio

A very nice fake

giorgio

Hello

What do you think about this badge ? Good or post war ?

Unfotunately I have only the pic of the reverse.

Many thanks

giorgio

Good original piece. Looks like a Deumer, although Deumer usually have a cut-out swastika.

Dear Gordon

Many thanks for your advice . The badge is very nice . I was puzzled over the possible maker

giorgio

Nice 'bord made' document, part of a group sold by Detlev Niemann some weeks ago.

Regards,

Michel

Many thanks

Probably the group has been scattered . Someone is selling this doc alone .
