John R Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 This was just posted on another forum being sold by a dealer. Described as a Deschler example. Personally, I find the finish too good for a zinc example of any badge. We have discussed deschler before as a possible maker but the evidence is inconclusive, at least to me.

Guest Darrell Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 The whole Deschler Horde thing makes me nervous. Whether it be KVK's or U-Boats badges alike .... :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Williamson Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Anythings possible I suppose, but I'd be extremely cautious about attributing any KM badge to Deschler, a firm not so far linked to the production of any naval awards, based on no more than a similarity in pin fittings.

Gordon Williamson Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Looks like its probably an original wartime piece, but I still don't believe any link to Deschler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
