    A good one imo. Possibly an unmarked Juncker.

      I just got a complete mg badge and one without the clothing.
      I keep them, since they where found in a HJ lot, and belong to the nachlass of one boy. (Perhaps he has them from family)
      What is a good (normal) price for the ensuring?
      I want to upload photos but just dont know how, since I barely use this forum.
      Regards

        Any thoughts on this small version (4 x 2.5 cm) of the MGSS badge? These were actually worn by some Freikorps as a hat badge which is why I'm interested in it. How were these small versions worn during the war? Don????

          I have seen no photographic evidence of small badges being worn but there is a believable example that matches the Schorp badge.

            So, do you think the one I posted is legit? The detail seems quite good and it's a nice clean and deep stamping, albeit with a noticeable flaw on the left side. Apparently the seller has had it for 40 years and got it as part of his Freikorps collection.

              Found this picture on line, maybe you have seen it already.

                Sorry to "pollute" the Imperial section with a Freikorps piece. But, I thought this was pertinent to the current discussion.

                I believe this badge on an Einwohnerwehr München officer's armband is similar to the one I posted.

                  Did anybody here win this one?

                    Hi all, what are everyone's thoughts on this Juncker badge? Compared to the others in this thread, I'm fairly certain it is a fake.

                        you're right that's the most common copy

                        Best regards

                          Hi All

                          Can I have an opinion this one please?

                          Comment


                            Looks like a good one to me. Probably made by Carl Leburg.
