Hauptmann Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Hi all, I just received this along with some other TR pieces as a gift. I'm not positive but I'm thinking this one may be a copy... but hoping ya'll can confirm one way or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlecH Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Hello Hauptman, I think its a copy of Police Badge for visor hat 2nd Model. Last week Detlev Niemann had the same badge on offer. It was a pressing, on the reverse you could see all the badge detail. This one is a casting with almost no detail on the reverse. Sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to worry as it was a gift. This was the one I was most concerned about... very detailed on the front but the back just didn't look right to me. The bells were going off so this is what I expected. This only leaves the SS cap eagle to be confirmed one way or the other. It's the only other one I wasn't sure on... not that anything looks odd to me or anything but I've always been extremely skittish about SS items as they seem to have been faked more than most over the years. Hoping someone will let me know on that one. But the naval eagle and especially the screwback wound badge being original made me extremely happy! In comparison this and the cap eagle are minor... especially in comparison to the screwback wound. Thanks again! Happy New Year! Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
