Stealing Daniel's outstanding idea (he said I could!), here is Spot the Fake Part 2!

Extra credit if you get the makers from the front view!

The fake is the wannabe AS PAB...I think...

Minesweeper is my guess on the fake, the IAB is a nice silver JFS, the PAB is AS?
the GWB is K&Q? and I have no idea who the GAB belongs to. Now I'll go back and look at the other responses.

[Hans Kondor]

IMO the PAB is the fake, JFS IAB, Hymenn GAB and minesweeper, 30 GWB?

Hi Greg,

My money is on the crappy-looking PAB.

Agree, it must be the lousy PAB.

But i dont like the minesweeper either. The eagles head look very small and strange but its maybe just the angle?

This is a Hymmen Minesweeper, and like many of their designs, just looks weird. But its their weirdness and rarity that make them irresistible to nutty collectors like Greg.

haha, ok. I just thought the head looked more like a knob or something.

[Greg]

Ah, you guys have sharp eyes (or maybe too many know what I own!)

Yes, it's the cast fake PAB of the AS/AS Triangle design. It's not too bad from the front, but horrible on the back. When I was talking with Daniel today about doing this, I intended to include one of those nice fake F&B.L bronze CCCs, but when I got home I couldn't find the thing. Tom would have known it in a heartbeat anyway!

GWB "30," Hymmen L/53 Minesweeper , unmarked Hymmen BM GAB, silver JFS IAB.

good exercise

This is a good exercise for all of us! I picked spot the fake # 1 OK the sub badge but was going to pick the GAB in this #2 I didn't even think to look at the crappy black color of the PAB? We should take turns at a specific time on a certain day and each take turns. It can't hurt and It can only help?

What do you guys think?
