Opinions on this Panzer Assault Badge

[Burkhard45]

I purchased this badge as an original from a very reputable dealer about a year ago. I am trying to sell it now and a few people on a Facebook militaria sales page are calling it a fake. I am most likely able to get my money back for the piece if it is a fake. What do you guys think regarding originality and maker?

Opinions greatly appreciated.

Regards, Hayden

Hi Hayden,

No doubt about it, its a fake. Any reputable dealer would take a fake back even after a year, so I would'nt hesitate to return it.

You would or wouldn't hesitate?

As I stated on Facebook, a fake.

I agree with Tom.
It looks good at a quick glance but the hinge base is not correct, the catch is to low and is of the wrong type. I would attempt to return it if I were you.
