Hello all,
In my opinion this badge has been cleaned, what does everyone else think? When I look at the depressions & crevasses on the reverse, they are darker and a different color. That is where the cloth could not reach, correct? Also to note is the polished swastika, and a bright brass colored catch. To me, it looks like a cleaner was used and stripped the patina off the piece. A great badge for sure, but cleaned IMO.
