Snoman Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Acquired at auction.Do you think it's original? Thanks for looking. Steve
Kamilos Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 hello. im not an experienced collector, thats why from some time now im comparing badges on the internet and some books. After comparing your piece with my findings I have some doubts about this badge. Ive uploaded for you an original wiedemann piece I know (found on germanawards.com). I hope someone more experienced will save us will theirs expertise. cheers!
J Temple-West Posted February 11, 2015 Posted February 11, 2015 I have to agree with Kamilos... Wiedmann PAB's are most commonly found with the reverse setup shown in the pic posted by Kamilos, but they can be also have a similar setup to the badge posted by Steve, the hinge being made of sheet metal. It's the overall quality, strange pin and size of catch plate that raises red flags for me.
