L56 uboat badge

[sscrooge]

This was just on ebay for a few mins on a buy it now, i was the 5th person to view it thankfully before it got reported i whipped it, i am not really a badge collector but am an ebay addict, now it has a shield like chest and thick pin, but the pics arnt great ,but i think it has a chance ,any opinions welcome, cheers Dave

With todays reproductions this is really hard to tell, but is has a chance I would say. But without better pictures, I would not buy it.

it was a buy it now so no chance of waiting for pics, and was showing its swas in full glory so wouldnt have lasted long, oh well its paid for and if bad can go back but thought it was worth a shot and wasnt a fortune, cheers Dave

[Nordmark]

Hi Dave,


when the price is right it is definitely worth a try. I hope we will see some better shots of the piece when you got it...

when it lands pics a promise good or bad,, seller says its L56 under the pin, we will soon see, thanks again Dave

going off those pics the look of the gun, flag, eagle, wear, and the broad pin all would fit in if it is marked L56. A good chance on this one but very risky, interested to see the outcome. All the best
