J Temple-West Posted October 3, 2006 Share Posted October 3, 2006 With thanks to Marc, I am able to add this early production Flak Badge by ?Hermann Wernstein? to the collection.I?ve never been a great admirer of ?Wernstein? Flak badges until this example arrived. Produced in zinc and finished in heavy nickel plating, my attitude has certainly been changed. The detail, construction and finishing are truly superb and now places ?Wernstein? up there with my favourite makers.Obverse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I probably don?t have the right scanner for badges as they tend to come out with the highlights too bright.@ Mike.. That swas is a nice touch. In fact the entire eagle is a nice piece of work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
