ArHo Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Hi all, I just got these two wound badges from my local flea market. Nothing special, but I would be very grateful for any opinions on them being contemporary originals or later reproductions. They are both magnetic.

VtwinVince Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Black grade is a good one, gold should have a painted finish to be an award piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArHo Posted September 8, 2022 Author Share Posted September 8, 2022 @VtwinVince thank you for your input! Do I get you right that the mattgelb piece has to be painted to be a period piece? I think this may be the case here as the yellow paint seems to be rubbed off in the upper part. Or do I interpret this wrong? Would love to hear what you think. I have made better pictures of the area in question. Greetings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VtwinVince Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 That's right, the finish on the original run of gold versions was painted on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
