Hi guys ive seen this badge it dose have a repair to the hinge
it seems like a early war
what sort of market Value would this be worth?
or should i give it a complete miss?

Thanks Martin

Hi Martin,

Hard to be sure if the hinge and/or catch was repaired since these were typically soldered on after IMME applied the finish to the wreath. However, the catch certainly shows some signs of possible repair.

In untouched condition, IMME Paras usually go for $1200 +/-. In repaired condition I would say half that IMO.
