    E-boat badge 1st pattern Schwerin

    Hello,
    I am new to the forum. I know there are a lot of knowledgable collectors out there and hope to get some help on this piece.
    It has a nice look to it, but the finish is a bit on the yellow gold side and the top hook seems a bit too large. I own this piece and would appreciate some input on it. I'm a big boy so don't worry about being the bearer of bad news, I just would like to know the truth. Sorry for the poor image quality but my scanner is broken so I had to use a digital camera.
    Thanks
    Martin K

            Hi kampfer,

            The badge you have posted is unfortunately a reproduction. The sharp scallop on the reverse, where the concave portion on the lower half of the badge meets the flatter outer edge, is the biggest give-away.

            Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

            If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!

              Thanks

              Thanks to both of you for your help, the quality of these repros seems to get better and better and it's difficult to keep up with.
              Best Regards
              Martin Kampmann
