Destroyer and Minesweeper FAKE, there is a chance for the S-boot (the Swazi and the flag look very neatly trimmed, which I don't like)!
Damn, they are getting close in some aspects!

Sorry, but Imo all badges all badges are repros.

The Fo Destroyer is from the same source as the RS&S HSF and SHuCo Coastal Artillery Fakes.
The Minesweeper is a Cave Creek Special.
The E-boat I believe is a very well done repro - hardware is a bit off, MM is a bit off, obverse detail (eg eagle's beak) is incorrect in places and the basemetal/finish does not look correct. A nasty one.

Regards
Mike

PS: See posts 25-31 in the Schwerin repros thread pinned above for another of these E-boat badge fakes.

Hello Chuck
Like the rest of the gang have posted no good,what with the TDB you have to change your dealer or post on the WAF before you buy. lots of good advice on this site.
Good hunting for the real deal.

Michael
