Did they exist? I have never ever seen one, but now I have been offered one. I have checked most of the big dealers and I have come up empty handed.

To be correct Detlev had one on his site a couple of months ago but it was pulled back immediately after he was informed that these were no good. So Delev never sold it.
I only know of one type of hollow back and it's always the same, the set-up on these badges is a perfect match to the set-ups found on fake BH mayer GAB's, fake Porsche PAB's and one crude looking fake IAB.

Convincing hollow destroyer
I'll pull this old thread back since I got pictures of previously unknown hollow destroyer (At least for me) and different from the two examples pictured on Detlevs reproduction archives.

Same old outfit with a new pair of shoes.
Compare this one to the traditional fake hollow-stamped badge on the right with the typical pin set-up. You can see that both badges came from the same die by the die errors appearing on both. Looks like the fakers have tried to update the old fake badge to fool some new collectors.Attached FilesVisit my Badge Collection: http://lbmilitaria.homestead.com/home.html
