    start of my collection

    hello, I've recently purchased 2 German badges which I am struggling to identify the makers of, could anyone spare a few mins and have a quick look to see if they can be identified? hopefully the pictures are clear enough

    Thanks in advance

    Hi Matt,

    Firstly, welcome to the forum, best one on the internet regarding Third Reich awards like you seem to be collecting.

    A bit of advice, I am sure alot of guys here would love to see your collection, but don't like to click on external links due to viruses. I recommend becoming an Association Member here on WAF, that way you can post your pics properly and you will also get great advice from our many experienced members here. Best $30 you can spend in this hobby, hands down.

    If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

            Does anyone have any ideas? I would really appreciate any help,

            Is there any reason why some badges are marked and others not? From what I've seen on the posts many unmarked badges are matched to the various manufacturers, and I wonder why they didn't mark them all?

            Do they at least look genuine?

            Thank you

              Hi Matt,

              The GAB is a known design, but there appears to be alot of casting pits on the obverse which is a bad sign. Reverse also looks soft with weird hardware, so I suspect this one is a cast fake.

              The PAB on the other hand is a fine, original Juncker in very nice condition.

                  Both badges look good to me however the General assault has had a hard life and I would not pay too much for it.
