Is This Any Good?

[John Bart]

Is this badge good or is it a fantasy? Never saw one of these.
Any and all opinions would be greatly appreciated

Torsten,
Thanks, apparently this thing is a fantasy or so rare that no one's ever seen
one? I did get a PM from a member who claims this piece is good.

It could be good or just as well it could be bad. There definatly existed such badges as identification for geting into installations. I saw a couple of different ones at Peenemunde.
They were similar but not the same.

Any chance of a pic of the back?

Jack,
Thanks for your expertise. I appreciate it.
Are these badges fairly common would you say?

[John Bart]

Could anyone estimate a market value on this item?
Thanks in advance.
