Two Kreigsmarine badges on offer.

[Lone Pine]

Gyday all.
These two badges may be offered to me for sale. I tried to do some research on them here, but couldn't find much on the e-boat badge maker as the stamp is not good and I'm not sure what the other one is called so couldn't do much with that one. Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi,

Bruce, the E-boat is a poor quality cast repro with definite post-war hinge/pin/catch. Throw this one back!

Regards
Mike

Same story as on the SBoot. Bad copy with bogus mark. Give it back.

Thanks guys for your quick reply and invaluable advise. I will indeed throw these two back into the stinking water from which they came.

I must agree with Jeff and Mike so that you have other views, however, I am most humored by the primitive attempt by the seller at some point to make this into a wartime badge by scratching into the reverse the name of somebody.

This is an important thread I think due to this, try not to buy the story or the "clincher" meaning, "Look here laddies, the name of the poor devil is scratched into the reverse, step right up!"

As we say, the story, no matter how disguised, does not add one more dime to value for most badges, unless it hits something far above this try.

Glad you posted here,

John

Brackish pool sounds quite evil Jeff. You are in great form, what takes me my well known 100 words takes you only 6!
