Hello Carsten,

The first one is really nice with the document, box, and stickpin mini. I like the second one as well. I have never seen one with that exact type of pin, hinge, and catch setup, nor the 'e.V.' marking, but it sure looks real to me. I would be surprised if it is a copy. You might want to post these in the Imperial Forum as you may get more responses. As it stands now, I like them both.

Best regards,
Tom

Also, the 'e.V.' is not a manufacturer's logo. It is the German abbreviation for "eingetragener Verein" or registered association. Notice also that 'e.V.' can be seen on both the award document and the box of the first example.

Best regards,
Tom

I am also fairly certain that the second example you have is a reproduction. As far as I know there were only two styles of pins on these. Your boxed example exhibits one style and then there was a split pin example. The bottle-neck pin that your second badge has is not correct.
