Any new Latvian badge reproductions appearing?

[rathbonemuseum]

Hello,

This is a request to those in Europe who may see them first but are there any new (newish) Latvian badge reproductions coming on the market? Specifically the pre-1940 Latvian Naval aviation badge? I know current badges are being sold, and they are similar in design. Those I am not worried about. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Hello friend,

I have a very good pics of original and also the current fake including short summary of main differences. Obverse on fake is fairly good but reverse is immediate giveaway... though only few people know how original reverse even looks like. Send me email and I'll try to dig these from my hard drive chaos. I'll post it here as well later.
