Schwerin Blockade Runners - Genuine?

[Martin Harding]

Hello Guys, I had this KMWB down as a copy but a friend swears it is genuine. From my perspective it is wrong pin assembly not characteristic at all of a genuine of a Schwerin catch, pin or hook. Also it lacks the detail, quality and is wrong metal. Please who is correct me or my friend?

Martin,

I'll chime in too. You were right; period. Bad badge.

Since your friend (the know-it-all) is probably reading this also, He should educate himself a LOT more. This badge screams cast fake, not even close. How could anyone, let alone a know-it-all, think this badge is authentic?

Best Regards, and keep trusting your judgement. You are on track with your assessment!

Trhe Price Of Honesty

Hello Mark, perhaps he is correct in so far it is old (as fakes go) but yes I agree in every other way it is way short of the mark. Still why I have to be so painfully honest is beyond me since he wanted to pay out £170 (about $335)
