There is something about this badge that simply does not add up, the more I look at it the less I like it

Did you do a search and compare Juan?

Thanks Ralph, definetely a fake, one day will find one to go with his silver brother

Hi
Lots of issues with this one. The reverse gives many clues, the profile and cut out area, as well as the hinge and pin. On Ralphs badge the gun barrel profile is nice and straight, and the maker mark is nice and crisp.

Thanks Graeme, agree with you, meantime I am very happy with my silver version copper coated, hope you like it

Hi Juan,

I agree with the others, not an original IMO. The soft details and pitting on the reverse are two big red flags, not to mention then 1960s era pin.

I think the Souval wide pin PAB/IAB's are undervalued awards,
They are way harder to find then people think
