I have this Prinzengroße 1939 Spange in my collection.
I am interested in opinions regarding authenticity. It's unmarked.
It was attached to a length of 25mm 1914 EK2 ribbon which in my view is clearly period. I've pried it off very carefully in order to photograph it.
The first picture simply shows measurements:
The other photos are quite large...but the piece is quite small! I want to emphasize that the lens of the camera caused a few distortions which are not present on the spange. For example, it is flat although the wingtips seem a bit curved outward:
Nice details, I think:
A side-ish view
...and another. There's a slight "seam" around parts of the outer edge that concerns me a bit:
Two vertical separately applied prongs:
Cut-off ends:
So what do you all think? Opinions are very welcome.
Thanks,
Trevor

awhile back as a Deumer. The lighting on my photo is hiding the 'smile' that is present on yours, but here inhand it is there also. I think it's a match.
