    Looks like an original from these pics, however the catch is replaced IMO.

    If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

        Hi Stian


        I am not keen on this badge.


        For me the obverse lacks detail. The reverse does not have a smooth texture but more of a dimpled pitted texture. There is a lot of flash around the edges and the two cutouts below the swastika are not usual for Frank & Rief marked GABs in my opinion.


        And as Tom mentioned the catch is an issue.


        best regards
        Graeme

          Hi guys,

          Looking at this one again, I think Graeme is exactly right, this one is a fake. Weak detail, cutouts under the swas, incorrect reverse hardware setup are all red flags.

          Good eye Graeme, I stand corrected.

              I agree with Graeme, also for me not a good one.
              The mess around the edges is the biggest giveaway.
