    Don´t throw away your fake WB´s! Get in touch with me.
    I collect them for reference purposes for the benefit of the hobby (for the right "fake" price of course).

    Obverse looks spot on for an 'Buntmetal' example by the "Unknown" maker,even down to the die flaw on the top Laurel leaf. The reverse has a slightly different hinge setup than I'm used to seeing + the rivet heads are a little smaller than normal. Catch is the correct '?' type.

    All in all....I would give it a

    Here's another one for comparison..

          I personally think these are OK but I do know that some people do not like these small rivet types. Can be a problem badge if you want to sell it later.
          If you are only going for one of each badge in the series, and not collecting the makers, you may want to wait until a nice one with MM turns up.

            Thanks for your wize input Skip! I´ll follow your advice and wait for a mm one instead.

            Regarding the small rivets on the badge, maybe that´s why it never have been sold earlier on the auction it´s on. It´s on its second run right now.
