Stogieman Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I would agree here...... a zink version of this badge is something to be proud of owning! It's a beautiful example of an extremely hard to find badge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stogieman Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Hi Don, I don't think it's possible to be modest when holding one of these in your collection!! One of the rarest and most desirable of the WW2 badges, IMO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Temple-West Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Sorry Wayne, but I have concerns about this badge.As far as I know, the only maker marked examples were the 1st pattern type made in aluminium.. An original 1st pat' has no beard (this characteristic came into being on the 2nd pattern ).. Your maker mark, although close, is not, IMO, an original 'Juncker' mark..Seeing that we have some members who collect these badges, perhaps they could lend a helping hand in comparing Wayne's badge to examples in their reference files.

T Casale Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 Hi Wayne,I have to agree with John concerning your badge. These badges were either produced in aluminum (1st pattern) or zinc (later pattern). These badges are rare to find.I'm posting my late war zinc badge. No marker mark, but produced by Juncker.Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacques Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 I also do think the badge is not good. The E.Queen book is quite helpful and this topic is available on others forum. Several things bother me:Metal umployedHookMMColordetails of the eagle & the wreathrivetshingeTo many for such a rare badge of which just one or two Juncker marked are known.Jacques Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wayne sinnott Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 No problem, the badge didnt cost me anything and as a "proper one" is hard to come by I am happy to leave it in my collection, it is still a quality badge, the eagle looks like it could be made of silver but I am no metal expert, if there is no doubt that this badge is a fake there are some very talented people out there who need to find better ways of channeling their talents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
