Steve K. Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Here's one that can be considered "rarer then hen's teeth" -- I've only seen 2 in my time of collecting....how about you??
ERIC Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 I've only seen my own until now Steve.ERIC[attachmentid=25963]
J Temple-West Posted February 4, 2006 Posted February 4, 2006 Very nice, guys!Ize been looking for one of these.
Steve K. Posted February 4, 2006 Author Posted February 4, 2006 EricNice!! That's only the third one I've seen!! Your finish to the wreath is better than mine, but it appears my eagle has retained the darker color better.....interesting! The only other difference is the RC overstamp!! It's nice to know that there are other GWL ROs out there!! But I've always wondered why so few...Wegerhoff seems to have been a prolific maker of pilot badges and other high volume qualification badges.....why not the RO & AG?JTWCan I put you at the top of my list for this one too!!Cheers,Steve
Jos Le Conté Posted February 5, 2006 Posted February 5, 2006 (edited) I've had the GWL airgunner for sale lately for quite a while..,which also is a rare badge.I've seen 3...4 maybe.Nobody wanted it then...,so,rare doesn't always mean something..Jos. Edited February 5, 2006 by Jos Le Cont
Steve K. Posted February 5, 2006 Author Posted February 5, 2006 Jos,Yes, I saw your badge for sale at a fair price......I can not buy them all!! But, rare will always be rare......I?ve seen many times people selling badges or medal bars at good prices on forum sites and they just sit......seller ends up sending them to Ebay or elsewhere....Maybe it is a sign of the economic times or maybe a sign of the maturity of the collecting community......Steve
