PAB 100 But Is It Good??

[Moore-Grant]

Hello people,

I keep getting caught out on all the badges & insignia I have had over the years.

This came via Jamie Cross years ago with a certificate included.

Is it any good?

I'm pretty bad at this. Edged Weapons are my strong point, not medals.

I can return it if bad.

Thanks in advance, all comments welcome.

Hello. IMO the badge is a bad one. To begin with, this badge is not Juncker quality. The fonts on the hundred are not correct. Secondly the head of the eagle looks like a pigeon. And if I am correct the rivets on this badge should silver or aluminium. I have not seen any juncker PAB 75/100 with the brass colored rivets. Here is one you can compare with. Martin

Blimey, another attack of "Das Pigeon".

Thanks Martin, I was only thinking about the number font not being right.

Will be no problem to return after a phone call, unless anyone else has any other advice?

P.S. I'll stick to pointy stuff only from now on.

It's all getting sorted out now.

Thanks

The detail on the obverse is clearly wrong..the Eagle appalling.

A prestigious and rare to find award,originals sell for in excess of 15k.

I brought it at least 11 years ago when they were about £800 UK Sterling. It is being sorted out now.
