Kriegsmarine Badges for Review

[William A. Bell]

Posting a bunch of Kriegsmarine badges for review. Badges are not my thing so before moving these to the estand in the appropriate category, I am posting these for review and hoping against hope that there is a pearl or two amongst the swine. My email address is wabell57@yahoo.com

Best regards,
Bill

Hi Bill,

Greetings Hubert!

Thank you for your response to my request to review the Kriegsmarine badges. Much appreciated as I would hate to sell a good badge as bad but more importantly, I would hate it much more if I sold a bad badge as good. The two badges that you identified as good were the ones that I was pretty certain of. The others not so much.

Best regards,
Bill

I agree, 2 good KM badges among all the duds. Even the fakes are interesting to see. That "Frank & Reif" is a different design and more grotesque than the usual "Frank & Reif" fakes -- in other words, the same mark on a different design of fake.

The Imperial U-Boat looks like it might be a good unmarked Walter Schott. You might want to post it in the Imperial sub-forum as well for further opinions.

Best regards,

Thanks to all that responded. I will be moving all of these badges to the stand for sale. The reproductions will be in the Bazaar and the originals will be in the Medals & Badges.
