Blockadebrecher-Kriegsabzeichen

[Jon. H]

Yes i know it's not an 57 award, but i'm sure it was used after the war.
It's one of the best job's i've ever seen on a denazification of a war badge.

I posted it over at the KM part a long time ago but i thought you guys wanted
to se it to.

Photos are taken in a EK1 box,

Let me know what you think

Happy New Year!

Very nice Jon-Olav! You're correct! That may be the cleanest de-nazification job ever! Thanks for sharing!

Hi Jon-Olaf, that is indeed a very neat de-nazz job!! It looks like they managed to remove it without doing any damage to the badge!!
Often when you see the swastika removed on an award, its crudely done, and really spoils the badge or medal, but not in this case!!!
Very nice!! Thanks for showing!! -Nigel

[Jon. H]

Thank you very much your kind words both of you!

And Nigel, yes sadly that is true, i will take some photos of a Minensucher-Kriegsabzeichen that i have with a ugly removal.

That is a real nice and clean denazification. One of the best i have ever seen.
Thank you for showing Jon-Olav.

Here's another "denazification". This one is bit cruder.
However there is something strange with this denazification. Do you know what it is?

Best regards

Without a doubt a great job on denazifying a badge. One i would put immediately in my collection

Stijn, my heart bleeds when i see this bad work

[Nigel N]

Ok Stijn, i give up What is it thats strange about the de-nazification on this Blockade Breakers badge? It loks like the swastika's been removed with a power tool!! -Nigel

Agree with you on that!

Correction ... a power tool handled by blind man or a drunk . What a shame ....

Hello

OK this was difficult to determine.
Here's the reverse of the same badge.

IMO this is a very early 57 version. A perfectly nice badge ruined for live.
I hope they didn't do it to make a few $ more...

Ah, most interesting! It was a perfectly fine early 57 war badge. But someone decided to try to make some more money, and then get it to look like it has been
Denazificated. So it's a Fake Denazification, they are faking everything these days
