WH Juncker para badge 2nd pattern

[m-e-h-t]

Hi, I visited a collector friend recently, he showed me this badge.

It is mint, and looked perfect in hand. And the story behind was also very good.

The only thing, what concerned me, was the maker mark. I expect the „l“ leaning at its neighbor, what it doesn’t.

Unfortunately I took only these 2 pics. Are they good enough to judge it?

Thanks for help

Hi Udo,

This unfortunately is one of the copies of this badge... When you compare closely with an original piece you'll see that literary everything is different from the original.

thanks, Giel!

I’m on a business trip here, have no database available. Except the maker mark, it looked pretty good in hand, without possibility to compare it...

You should not compare... you should KNOW this copy

A fake for sure.
The maker mark is terrible, so is the hardware.
The eagle is out of proportion too.
They copied the die flaw near the beak very well.
In the end it's not close to an original.

Pictures are enough, I agree it is a very bad one.

The story was good but the badge is bad... a familiar story
