Hi to All

Flee markets time in Normandy this summer...Last Sunday, 4 German qualification badges in a box for...20€! of course prices for copies but are they?

Thanks in advance,
Best to All

Hi Thierry, Unfortunately none of these badges is wartime made, in my humble opinon.

Hi Thierry,

I agree with Joseph - all badges postwar fake.
At IAB's -the details look tooo soft.

Hi Joseph & Igor,

...so, no surprise...20€ is their price!
Thanks very much for your help.

I agree, all copies..

Agreed, all fakes. U-boat badge is even a copy of postwar french made u-boat.
Cheers,

Hi Thierry,

As Hubert said, the U-Boat is a cast copy of the so-called "French-made" zincer, which is itself somewhat controversial. More of the series can be seen here:
