[Aiceman]

Another version: become association member and you can upload pictures. I think good investement if you are collector

Another example of a

......useless thread with links that disappear. I see no reason to comment on either badge when my comments become useless as the links discontinue to function.

Hi reichstuff,
I agree with the above, both fakes unfortunately. I don't have the expertise to tell you the exact details that make them fakes other than to say that I've seen them so many times at shows and here on the forum that I just know they are.

I see Olav69 posted the photos for you, but I'd advise you to spend the money to join to become an Association Member (click on the A. MEMBER tab in the upper right corner of the page). I've been collecting for 25 years now and still have a difficult time telling some of the better fakes from the originals. Between posting photos for more knowledgeable collectors to evaluate items and searching the WAF database, I've avoided a lot of costly errors, so it's well worth the membership dues.

I agree with Tom, both are fake.
