Umarked U Boat with neddle pin

[MH184]

Hi,

The details good on this but a vertical needle pin, the eagle looks like a Muppet, and the maker name if any has been voided.

What do you think to this one then please is it right or wrong ?

Kind regards,

Marcus

Sorry about two of the pictures theres not enough light.

Dear Marcus,

Not ultimately sure because I cannot see the wreath very clearly, but it looks pretty much like the fake that is usually marked f.o.

Real f.o. badges have a horizontal pin.

Cheers, Frank

The exact same eagle/boat design was used by several other firms as well as f.o.. The pin/hinge on this one looks exactly like a Souval.
Orth used a ? question mark shaped round wire catch, Souval used a round wire catch soldered to a circular base plate just like this.

Souval with an obvious attempt to remove any makers markings raises warning flags.
