                Hi Shawn,

                Is it possible to get 1 or 2 additional shots of the catch? Different angles?

                Regards,
                Mark

                  Catch

                  Mark:

                  Thanks for taking a look. I do not have the badge in hand...am attaching the only photo of the catch provided by the owner.

                      It looks like the same eagle as on this fake "CEJ" PO badge in the Fakes Gallery...see posts 7, 8 and 9.

                        After further review the whole badge is crap. The wreath, eagle, hardware, finish are all different from an original. Also the mm is a clever attemp but still bad, and the proper finishing techniques are not there. best wishes,

                          Hi Lorenzo, it is close but this is a new eagle altogether. Compare the reverses. best wishes,

                            Thanks

                            Jeff, Mark, Lorenzo....thanks. I also had serious doubts about this one. ....I could not find images of a legitimate original that looked anything like this badge. In particular, the reverse view, for me, is quite telling - the shape of the eagle just doesn't conform. I also did not like the quasi-frosted finish on the bird. FYI, here is the link to the dealers listing. I am not familiar with this gentlemen. website.
