    Silver IAB - unusual pin fitting..

    Hi,
    any thoughts on this badge? I have seen this type of fitting on GABs before not on an IAB, is it correct?
    cheers,
    Rick

    Hi Rick,

    this type of setup is known on the so called 4-rivet IABs. So in general this IAB with this setup exists as originals. Unfortunately your example is a fake.

      Hi Rick,

      Sven is correct ofcourse, yours is a common fake based on the 4-River IABs.

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

          Yes that's a fake. If you do a search on 4-rivet iab you can compare a genuine one with
          this example. You will spot many differences.
          Good you posted it here before bidding.
