Blocade Runner Take 2

[rfleming32]

I have had this badge for a while but never really paid much attention to it because I never liked the design that much and it filled a hole in the collection. Never had any reason to question its authenticity but I have been wrong on this forum TWICE on Kreigs collected many years ago so time to check this one against the experts. The photo's are not very good and are with artificial light. The badge weighs in at 17.6 grams so it strikes me that maybe it is buntmetal? The eagle has full silvering. I have a chance to upgrade this to a cased version with stickpin. Any idea what the cased version would be worth in estand prices? Is this good, is it buntmetal, or just zinc? Thanks for your observations. Richard

Nothing wrong with this one, looks to me as a very good condition tombak badge. What is not to like? John
