Greetings,
I have a general question, The naval badges and insignia. I recognize the designs. I have several references, I have been seeing these items often and I am trying to ensure that I don't end up purchasing any post war insignia. How do you folks know if you are buying a true example of the Kriegsmarine and not a later Bundesmarine patch.
I see that ebay is constantly selling these insignia, I have not purchased any of these examples because I believe them to be post war.
It was brought to mind that these rating badges were not worth the thread to make forgeries but I guess I was wrong.
Please share some insight on how one can ensure a accurate piece of history and not a forgery in this field.
Regards,
Justin G.
