    JFS Silver PAB, fake, or is it?

    Your opinions, please, a collegue of mine has branded this a fake, and gave me his reasons. Being only my 3rd PAB, and my first "JFS" I'm not too sure as the workmanship is quite good!

    a few pictures to follow.

              I would say that line down the front of the tank would be my only observation as strange

                JFS never made un-numbered PAB's

                  Scott is correct. This badge is indeed a fake. The first clue is the checkering of the chest feathes that go all the way up the head. Then there is that line down the middle of the badge. The JFS mark seals its fate.

                      The artifically aged "spider-web" patina ia also a give-away for a bad badge.

                      Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

                      If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!

                        You should add this one to the fake PAB thread here. Might help the next guy.
