Hi Robert
I'm mostly positive but if you could post precise height, you will know for sure. Silver finnish could be modern paint.

Not my field but curious if that could be heavy oxidation?Comment

Fake for me. Poor detail, weird finish and incorrect hardware imo.

Have you tried to ask the seller? The catch looks weird but I still think it's to early to write it off.Originally posted by militarymania View Post

Not a one looker for sure, but it could have chances to be original. That very crazy finish make the badge looks like a fake.

My first look impression was its original and just has a sloppy refinish. I came back and still think so. catch looks a little thick from pics. TPKComment

There are many more pictures of this where it is being auctioned off. I am not going to be bidding on it, as the close up details show them to all be soft, catch pin is wrong, etc. (Mr. Durante's opinion I completely agree with).
To each his own, current bid is only $80. Will probably go higher before the April 15th auction is over, but I am not in favor of it (and the particular auction it is on has many fakes with my favorite fake the "WWII SS Sports Badge" being one of them).Comment

Can someone write me a PM with the link to this "top secret" auction just to see the details?

I have owned silver APBs with both the "coke bottle" and round pins. Either style pin was always blued.Comment
