S-Boat Badge 2nd Pattern #2

[AFF96]

This is the 2nd of 2 S-Boats I bought & posted the other one with the broken pin. As a novice I'm concerned about the pin set up & MM.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
FYI, I paid about $55 for each.
Thanks for the help!
Greg

Hello Greg,

Sorry, but it looks like a cast fake of a Rudolf Souval badge. G.H. Osang is not a known maker of Kriegsmarine badges and 'L/12' is the LDO number of C.E. Juncker.

Best regards,
Tom

Darn it.....thank you Tom!!

Agreed, as far as my literature and knowledge is concerned Osang is not a recognised maker of this badge.

Hey Patrick,

Sorry to break into the thread but every time I see your signature I'm intrigued by your add-on phrase:
""Rein muss er" und wenn wir beide weinen!"
I'm trying to figure out what it means! Is it "He must clean, and whenever we both cry!?" or some other idiomatic expression.
Please enlighten me.

Regards,
---Norm
