Juncker coastal artillery badge

[Dimitri D]

Hello,

What do you think about this juncker coastal artillery badge ?

IMO it's a nice and minty one. Just need verification from KM badges experts.

Thanks

Hi Dimitri,

The badge is an original tombak example - no question on authenticity imo.

Juncker Coastal Artillery badges do not tend to hold their finish very well, so seeing a lot of obverse wear on the gun but very little wear apparent on the wreath gives me some cause for concern over the gilt finish.

Regards
Mike
