    High Seas Fleet & Submarine Badges

    Hi all:
    Am pretty sure HSF is Cave Creek but would like your assurance.
    Am pretty sure the Submarine is original 3rd Reich but your opinion's
    are welcomed.
    It is unmarked so can someone tell me the maker?
    Thanks, John

      Hi John,

      The "5-feather" U-Boat dates at least as far back as 1957 but it's not known whether late wartime or post-war.

      See this thread (or search for "5-feather U-boat").

      Best regards,

        I agree, it's controversial 5-feather U-boat and fake HSF.
        Cheers,

          Thanks for all the links on the sub.
          This one has the all bronze hinge. It really looks like a combat veteran.
          Thanks for all the input guys. John

            The HSF is imo a repro, but not a Cave Creek Special. This looks like a casting of an early Type I with incorrect basemetal and hardware.

            Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

            If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!
