    GAB for opinions please

    Hello, helping a friend sell his collection. Would appreciate any and all opinions of info regarding the authenticity of this badge as well as a fair value for it should it prove to be correct. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

    When doing a price check sometimes I try Collectors Guild. That will give a ball park price range good luck.

      Thank you. I don't collect military very much, I am into the political badges myself. I know it's rude to ask prices but was hoping to get some help pricing for my friend. Thank you for the tip, I will check it out. Any opinions on the authenticity?

        Hi Eric,


        A fine original GAB, however the catch looks like it might be a replacement. Some closeups of it from different angles with the pin out of the way will tell us for sure, but I am quite sure its a replacement. Otherwise, a very nice original in great condition with almost all its original finish remaining.

        If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

          Nothing against the Guild, but the prices on there for most things are highly inflated. For common items, best to subtract at least a third (and sometimes even a half) for a more realistic price.

            I agree, a nice original Unknown maker Gab

            I’m with Tom about the catch. This maker used two different base plate.
            Rectangular and round base, but all of them has a slim wire catch.
            Never seen a wide “C” catch on this maker

            Need better photos



            All the best

                Nice original piece by an unknown maker. I have no problems with this catch.
                Kind regards,
