    AGMuK brnz CCC, REALLY mint!

    This has been the hardest badge I have ever photographed. It's going to look almost gold in the photos, but it's really a dark glossy chocolate brown. No matter what I do I can't hide the sparkle of the edges. There is absolutely no wear on this piece. It really is mint. If you think you see a rubbed area, it's just the light reflection. I bought this off of the e-stand recently from 'Mathias'. Thank you for a really unworn and totally mint piece for the collection.

          I collect them for reference purposes for the benefit of the hobby (for the right "fake" price of course).

            Thanks Hans,

            I've got to get some better photos showing the dark chocolate color...

              Hi Robert,

              I agree, nice score. A few of the AGMuK makers, this one being one of them used a two-tone bronze finish. It was overlaid with a black lacquer and then wiped clean to artifically darken the recesses. This best can be seen in the arrowheads next to the central motif.

              Specifically, this one is type 1.4.3 in the CCC book

              Great example Robert.

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

                Thanks Tom,

                I just couldn't settle for those 'gold' photos. Here's a more true-to-life photo...
