High Seas Fleet War Badge - Opinions please

[ancientrelicsuk]

Hi Guys,

I would really appreciate opinions on this High Seas Fleet War Badge. I know its pretty crappy, but is it genuine? Better a crappy original than a crappy fake I suppose.

Thanks for looking and for all opinions offered.

Best regards, Guy

Hi Guy,

Well, yes it's a crappy original! A genuine Friedrich Orth, Vienna of the type with cast-in hardware (broken off on this example of course).
