    Schwerin Destroyer Badge Help

    Guys, I may just be getting paranoid in my old age, but I wanted to post some photos of a tombak destroyer badge I've owned for some time. While it may be acceptable, I'm concerned about the flat head pin in the hinge. All of my other Schwerin badges have domed pins. Anyway, I'd appreciate you guys giving it the once over and giving me some feedback. Thanks!

      The flat head hinge and catch.

        Lastly, a not so great enlargement of the maker's mark.

          Dear Larry,

          IMO the badge is fine - flathead hinge pins exist as well as the domed ones on Schwerin badges.
          Cheers, Frank

            Hi Larry,

            I agree with Frank, a nice badge. The standard (most common) hinge pin on tombak Schwerins is the domed type but they are found from time to time with the flat head. These in themselves come in two types, one with a smooth flat finish (like yours) and another with cross hatching effect

            Regards

              Hi Larry,

              Can't add much to the above except for the fact that it's not only original but in wonderfull condition. Very nice example
