    French Made Aux Cruser ...opinions please

    Hi guys:

    I have a feeling this badge is not good. There is what appears to be a casting seam along the edge. I do not have any other French Nazi KM badges to compare it too....but was wondering if these may have been cast?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    John

        french badge

        hello on the badge the pin is magnetic and plated and does not look like known originals,i have evidence that that fake is over 30 years old,but how can anybody be sure that baqueville never cast there badges,and used a different pin,because why would a faker cast a badge leaving an obvious seem and then go through all the trouble to plate a steal pin,chay

            Dear John,

            Your badge shares the pin with other Bacqueville fakes. The shape of the original pin is totally different. Original (yes, yes, I know: if any of them are original) Bacqueville badges do not have that casting seam.

            I do not think that badge is original.
            Cheers, Frank

              Hi Chay and Frank:
              Thank you very much for your opinions. I will be returning the piece as your information does not sound too promising.

              John
