          Bob,

          From the Juncker makermark alone, I emphatically say no. They never used this 'font' style. Some will argue yes, but don't spend your money on it, please.

          Regards,
          Mark

            This badge will be a distant memory in the morning.

              I concur with Mark. Not a maker mark style that I have seen on any original Juncker flight badges.

                Bob,

                For your files, images of a Juncker 2nd Style DoppelAbz.

                    Hi Guys,



                    Also agree a repo aside from the maker mark that some might find controversal ( I don't, I just don't like that mark) The wreath is also wrong and dipped as well. The eagle is not all that bad, but it ain't for me. I am sure if you weighed that badge it would come in to far off the correct weight with a tolerance of 5%. I have handled a like badge a few times, they are somewhat very convincing unless you know what to look for,kinda a highier end fake. The eagle is better than the wreath in hand. The finish on the wreath as well as the eagle isn't like an original. Save your $$$ and send this guy back. The pics posted don't really display the finish as red isn't the best color to take a digital image of a P/O as well as the pics being over contrasted and sharpened.

                    Cheers,
                    Joe

                      Thanks guys!
                      After looking at it closer, it is a cast badge. Not to mention the funky color of the wreath and weird rivets.
                      Thanks again!
