Hi all,

I was offered this Schwerin U-Boot. What do you think?

Thanks,

Can we see the "brighter" PICS?

Janvs,

The front and back PICS are really too dark to be sure, but overall it looks like a nice quality "flat-wire C catch" variety. I would like to view the area around the deck gun with better "brighter" PICS though as it looks to be cut a bit different, but that may be the PIC too.

These have a brilliant fire-gilding to them and this one appears to have a nice finish as well. I'd say it's a keeper.

Hi Janvs,

No problem, it's a good one.

I agree, nice to see a good original with so much of the fire golding still intact.

Looks OK

Looks Ok to me, it is common to see on what I think are the earlier badges with the flat wire silver catch the deck in front of the gun raised slightly (easier seen from the reverse photo). Photo below of an unmarked one.
