    Deformed Leaf IAB

    Hello All

    I have just added what I believe to be a third type Deformed Leaf variant with the Block hinge. The silver finish is quite different from the "shiny chrome" appearance of my vertical crimp.

    Best Regards, fischer

        Don´t throw away your fake WB´s! Get in touch with me.
        I collect them for reference purposes for the benefit of the hobby (for the right "fake" price of course).

            Deformed Leaf IAB

            Where I can find the deformed leaf on this nice IAB? The leaves on this IAB are pretty alike but I need to see this deformed leaf's location so I can see tthis variation. I never encountered a Deformed Leaf IAB variant until now. BTW, a nice IAB!

                Hi Fischer......

                ......Is your badge tombac? I have one on file posted by Anthony, awhile ago, that has the same block-hinge variation, but in tombac.

                Very nice badge by the way!

                    Hi James......

                    ......look at the right side of the wreath, just above the rifle butt....and voila! You'll see the deformed leaf!

                      Hi Fischer

                      Lovely looking example

                      There is a very good chance that the vertical crimp could be a different maker (certainly different dies) so when comparing finishes bear this in mind.

                      Here is a bronze with similar set up to compliment yours

                      regards

                          I've got a few deformed leaf IAB's to share. Here's one I haven't taken the time to photograph since I bought it from Detlev. He thought it was tombak, but it's zinc. And, he discounted the badge when the weight was told him. It's a beauty...

                              Here's another oval crimp with a little less gloss to the bronze, in fact it's pretty flat brown, but in excellent condition...
