I am not so ready to dismiss this one yet. It has some things I like to see. You may want to provide some more shots Of the black border details and tank .

Is the gold backing on the reverse known to have been found on genuine badges? And, These are the only pics I have of this one. I'll see if I can reconfigure the photo to show a close-up of the parts you mentioned above.

Agree with Sammler, Jeff, Eddie & Ludwig. 100% textbook original

PAB_Collector I recommend you take a step back and think about what you're saying before you provide opinions if you aren't familiar with the item. These are rare as rocking horse crap and to just categorically dismiss it because the "tank is all wrong" is not fair to Steve. Have you ever had one of these or for that matter seen an original in hand? If you know something about the tank then please share it with us.

Superb original example.

Mine has the yellow backing as well.

I agree with Waffenreich. Be very sure of what you talking about before you quickly condemn an item. It is not fair to the owner or to those who really want to learn from this forum...
