ERIC Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 Good Evening All!, Here's something a slight bit offbeat that just arrived at my doorstep this past week - a sweet little Juncker 3rd pattern ROAG badge. What makes this one different from the norm is that this example isn't in zinc, it's buntmetall - eagle and wreath, complete with the standard "SW" marking rather than the "SW68"usually found on 3rd pattern eagles. It actually appears to be a transitional hybrid if you will - a 3rd pattern eagle on a 2nd pattern wreath. I couldn't pass this one up!ERIC
J Temple-West Posted March 18, 2007 Posted March 18, 2007 It actually appears to be a transitional hybrid if you willExactly right, Eric. Kudos for picking that one up. Yet another one to look out for.A side-by-side comparison of the buntmetal and the zinc.
ERIC Posted March 19, 2007 Author Posted March 19, 2007 Thanks JTW! When I first saw it, I thought it was all 3rd pattern, but when she arrived I noticed right away that it was a 3rd/2nd pattern hybrid. ERIC
Richard Gordon Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 EricNice variation for your collection. Condition seems excellent!Rich
ERIC Posted March 21, 2007 Author Posted March 21, 2007 Cheers, Rich! Yes, the overall condition is really A-1. ERIC
