    BH Meyer GAB tombak or cupal ???

    Hello Collectors,

    before this one goes I´d like to be sure and kindly ask, if someone could tell if it is a tombak badge or cupal??

    On the top of the bajonette there can be seen a silver colour shining through...so is it just a "cupal like finish"?

    Thanks in advance

    Kind regards

    Martin

        I would go with tombac, but you can double check the weight of the badge!

              I agree, its tombak. It would be hard to solder fitting like if it were aluminum on the reverse.

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

                I agree

                Martin, the silver area you mentioned is likely the finish. All the worn areas look to show tombak..

                  Lighting seems to give it a copper color, but agreed, tombak

                    This badge will never ever have the look of a cupal piece, study the edges.

                      Chad, that was why I thought it could be cupal.....


                      Thanks everyone for all your comments and help, much appreciated.


                      Kind regards
