    Tank Badge and case

    I have a person interested in liquidating their collection.
    It happens.
    He has WW2 stuff that I would be interested in but with him, it's all or nothing, so I have to look at buying his WW1 badges also.
    I know nothing about them.
    Perhaps someone might look at these as I put them up and tell me if they are any good or not??
    Thank you,
    Tim

      I don’t like the badge either. Fantasy!
      Would love to see better pictures of the case.

        Yes, the badge appears soft on the reverse so I'd guess a casting with a spurious maker mark. Pics of the case would definitely be worthwhile if it's an original for eg a flight badge.

        Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

        If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!

          These badges are a mystery to most collectors - including myself.
          After some research on the topic two years ago it seemed to me that the examples with the "framed"grenades were all fakes.
          On the other hand I never ran into this makers mark during my quest - maybe it´s a jewellers copy indeed. If the name would be in the case as well, we might have a different story....

            Thank you for all of the replies.
            I'll have to see how things develop with the owner.
