    Anti-Partisan Badge

    Gents,

    Sometimes I turn up the strangest badges. This actually came out of a house clearance in a Berlin household. There were a few other bits of Militaria laying around, an EK2 and this.
    I have a fair idea of how a authentic APB should look like, and I know that the solid ones have cutouts. Still this thing looks pretty sharp, and I really don´t know what to think, so anybody want to have shot at the authenticity question?

    Thanks. Skip

      Hi Skip,

      I may be wrong, but I always thought that this massiv style should have a wide fluted pin, similar to a numbered GAB. Do we know with certainty?

        No freaking way!

        That appears to be a 100% original C.E. Juncker. Congratulations!
        They came with either a flat pin, or a needle pin.
        The needle pin variation usually has no cut outs and the wide
        pin variation usually has three.
        Will it be for sale?

        Best, Chris

                  Skip,
                  Is this aword 100% flat at the back? It schould have a slight vaulting. Is it possible to get the measurements and weight? It looks like 1st pattern juncker.

                    My God!

                    A gold Juncker APB! It doesn't get any rarer than that.
                    Wow! I never thought I would ever see a picture of a Gold one.
                    That is awesome. Thanks for sharing it with us.

                    Best, Chris

                        Gents,

                        thanks very much for all the comments. Chris, your opinion is especially appreciated as I know from earlier posts that you have spent a lot of time looking at these.
                        John, might have known that you would have one "in a box somewere"

                        Unfortunatly nicht in my collection but I will be looking for one from now one.

                          Hi Skip: Thanks for posting yours. It gave me something to compare pictures of mines' to. It is interesting to study the different reverse assemblies and dies on these pieces. Chris seems to have done a good job in identifying the Juncker made pieces. Chris, would the Juncker pieces with the solid back have been made earlier than the scooped out versions?

                            Hi Rocket, my piece has a slight vaulting. I put a piece of paper across the back and can see the gap where the vaulting is.

                              Yes John, the solid back Junkers are the earliest of the zinc produced badges.
