S Boot Badge

[gunbb]

I picked up an S boat badge today that is really late war or fake. It says,
FEC.W.E.PEEKHAUSBERLIN
AUSF SCHWERIN BERLIN 68
I remember there was a post on the fakes and what to look for but haven't been able to find it. I have to say, if they gave me this, I'd desert . Don't have picture posting privilaeges ,Thanks, BB

If you're talking about the Pinned posts, I'm denied . Besides I don't see one for S-Boots. I remember a post where the person showed by comparison, the real ones and the fakes. That's what I'm looking for, Thanks, BB

I can't really comment without seeing pictures.

Very important here because original second pattern S-Boat awards by Schwerin were applied with a finish that deteriorated over time and are not as "fine" looking as other badges of this type that were produced by other makers during the war.

It may well be a good one,but we need pictures ???

Cheers,Martin.
