      The HSF is negative.....sunken below the surface of the die
      The Eagle is positive...standing above the surface

        The die for the HSF is neither S&L nor Deumer (also not Assmann) - the simplest thing - the number of bull eyes is different.

          Yes, you are right, I've just checked my S&L HSF, and it is different, the waves were the first thing I noticed!!
          Assmann normally got their dies from S&L, and as you said, it doesn't appear to match the Deumer either!!
          So....is it an unknown maker, another die from a known maker, or a fake??

                      I don't know. Allowing for differences in image resolution and the fact the die is negative while the badge is positive, I think they look quite close?

                      I flipped the die image in these comparisons with the badge images.

                      Best regards,

                        All those mini dies look like they're in positive? So if real they would have to be hubs used to make negative working dies?
