Tank Destroyer Badge

[engineer73]

Hey guys im pretty new here but not new to collecting! I got this TD badge and I am curious if you think this has a chance! I have no ace in the hole with it if it take it will sent back to the guy or kept and marked! I compared it to other badges and it dosent look horrible though I am no expert on these in any way. As you can see the stripe was black but due to the plate rusting it turned orange from rust! Let me know your thoughts and thanks either way!

Sorry for the junk photos in the thread is someone wants to delete them that would be great! Otherwise you can see the badge pretty well, it appears rust has stained the black area orangish, as the black spot can be seen where it was folded! Look forward to hearing opinions!

This badge is type of a fake I have not encountered previously.

There are SO MANY things wrong with this I don't know where to start. I suggest you check out other examples shown here and in books and you will see all the problems this one has ! Tom
