    Close combat award?

    Hi
    I hope I have the correct name for this award. Another from a collection I recently inherited and am in the process of sorting. Does this go in the good or the bad pile.
    Thanks
    Andy

      You identified it correctly but unfortunately that is a rather grim fake. Probably cast from an original AGmuK. The pin is of the 57 award type also look at the pitting on the reverse. Do a forum search for Close Combat Clasp and you will find a lot of nice originals by this maker.

        Hi Andy,


        Patrick is correct of course, definitely the bad pile, for the reasons he mentioned.

              Not many left now. I intend to post the pictures of the good and bad piles when all is sorted. During all this, I am still pursuing my original passion which is British Medals pre 1920 and badges. Enclosed is a pic of a small part of my British collection, to give you some idea of the trouble I am having sorting all this out. I am still constantly adding to my original collection and then giving myself more research . I would like to take this opportunity to thanks all who have volunteered there excellent opinions. Without you I would stilll be stuck on the first piece
              Regards
              Andy

                  Yeah
                  Mostly groups. This is the ones I am allowed to display. The wife has made me hide the rest away in draws. Imagine her response when all the German lot turned up and I told(asked) her if they could go on the walls!!!!!!!!!
