    fo PAB opinions requested please.

    Hello. I have been offered two badges, but I would like some opinions on these.
    The first up is an f o maker marked bronze PAB.
    I am not sure about this badge for the following reasons.
    The head of the eagle. What appears to be a lot of small round balls around the wreath wheels and tracks (not the stippled areas behind the leaves). There appears to be a circle on the reverse of the eagles head, but not central in others I have seen.
    Any opinions will be very much appreciated.

    kind regards John

          Hi John,

          That's a very bad fake. Lot's of pitting, integrated set up, wrong finish, no details on the obverse,...
          Kind regards,
          Giel

              Lot of small "balls" spread over the front. Never seen that before, sure makes it easy to tell it's a fake.

                Years ago I returned an Fo GAB because it had those tiny balls and lack of detail.

                Are these from a dealer? or private?

                regards

                  These are from a private sale. I will post a further badge he has now offered me. An ISA. Has the same balls on that too. I looked up the fakes in some of my books but saw none with this trend.
                  Needless to say, I have declined all three, thanks to the comments here.

                  thanks again John
