    HSF on ebay - why I don't like it

    Hi,

    First, here is the badge:

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=2241365659

    I'd like some critique of my analysis on this item, if you don't mind. I don't like the hinge, the "coke bottle" pin looks narrow, and the next problem is that the mm is too regular. On other badges by this maker, the L in Berlin seems too dip below the rest of the line, etc. What is your opinion?

    Thanks!

    Kevin

    Bad one

    Hinge and pin wrong.
    Makers mark wrong.
    No die flaws.
    Generally YUCK!


    Cheers,
    David.
    At Rathau on the Aller, the CO of 5th Royal Tanks advanced on foot to take a cautious look into the town before his tanks moved in. He encountered one of his own officers, a huge Welshman named John Gwilliam who later captained his country's rugby team, 'carrying a small German soldier by the scruff of his neck, not unlike a cat with a mouse.' The Colonel said: 'Why not shoot him?' Gwilliam replied in his mighty Welsh voice: 'Oh no, sir. Much too small.'

      Not even close on the mm. Look at the A in Adolf, whats up with it being so large? Hinge is wrong, pin is also wrong and the list goes on.
