badge Fake or not

[pissance]

Hi all,

Could you tell me if badge is a fake ?





Thanks for your help,

I guess the KVK is good, but the Army flak badge is a reproduction made by Rudolf Souval around the 1960s.

As Jon-Olav says, KvK looks ok, the Flak badge is junk.

I can only agree, the KVK looks fine but the Heer Flak is a well known fake.

I agree with the others. KVK looks like a nice early bronze one. Any maker mark on the ring?

For those not familiar with Souval's fakes, the catch is an instant give-away for any badge. This type of catch (a metal circle with cut-out strip that is bent to make a hook/catch) was never used in Third Reich or earlier, but is notorious with Souval's fakes.
