    Three badges, good or bad?

    I have an opportunity to pick up these three badges and wanted some expert thoughts first. These are the best photos I have available.

    Thanks,

      Hi gusvmi94,

      I agree with Hubert.

      The Fleet badge looks like a variation of the common "Cave Creek Special" fake.

      The "Schwerin" U-Boat looks like the same type as this fake with a horizontal setup - same outlines, same "faux aging", hinge and catch but this one is spuriously marked JMME.

      Best regards,
      ---Norm

        The Destroyer is interesting. It appears to be a fake of the Schickle design badges. I haven't seen this one before and it seems more dangerous.
