High sea fleet badge.....+-

I assume this is a copy, never seen back like that.

Isn't that the French Bacqueville reverse?

Here is my 2cents worth...It looks like a baqueville (sp) type hinge. So my guess is that French manufacturer. But I would wait for more educated members.

ok, here is the front

That is a baqueville badge. The setup looks correct, the fakes have a different shaped pin. There is no evidence that these were awarded wartime but they are generally accepted to be pre 45. Can you tell what the metal is? Looks very coppery in that obverse pic.

Thanks guys!

I dont know what metal this is, its late here and I used the flash so the colors are wrong. There is approx 40% left of the gold paint., rest is dark grey.

How much do these generally go for?
