I don't think so, even from this poor photo.
Compare with this original.

I asked for better pictures. I mentioned the Daisy model cause of the flower on lower side, it might be another producer

Ralph,

I am sorry to say but I seriously doubt that your badge is authentic. You should have it checked out by others.

Lovely badge!

Hello Dirk,
Could you please explain why you think it is not original?

Hi Ralph,

I have done some research on the details of these 'Daisy' badges as the reproductions are getting better and better, fooling many and destroying inspiration for future collectors.

I used your image to point out some of the features, the reverse also has some interesting features (red flags).

Both fine originals in this thread.


Germanmedals is a fine original Schauerte & Hohfeld.


Ralph's badge looks fine to me so far from the obverse. Please show some pics of the reverse to be sure, but I don't see red flags at this point, finish and details all look fine to me.


Staegemeir fakes are indeed well made, but the features deejay points out can be found on original Daisy PABs. That is because Staegemeir casts his fakes from original badges, so they will often feature all the same details. But the base metal and finishes, etc. are typically incorrect.

Reverse photos from my example.

Hi Ralph,


Nothing wrong with your PAB IMO, a fine original.

Thank you Tom.
I was pretty confident, it was purchased here from a long time member.

Ralph, Tom,

then I guess it's back to the old drawing board for me then... These daisy's , the variants and their reproductions are really confusing in my opinion, I shall look into these a bit more.

Anyway, also a lovely badge in A+ condition.
