Original FLL with a hard life... Possible replacement catch. FLLs are very smooth normally - on the reverse. Was this ground dug?

Must be a ground dug..dont like the pitting

[Marc Garlasco]

Yes, the pitting would be a sign of a casting normally, but the hinge is typical FLL which makes me think ground dug. If not then we must have weights and measurements.

Thanks for the replys

The badge is on a dealers site,he mentions it is in rough condition,but says nothing about ground dug.He also mentions it is tombak.

I don't know anything about badges,but I need one for my Flak display,it doesn't have to be mint for me,if it's original it's good.He ask's 140 Euro for it.

So you guys are pretty sure it is original?

Thanks,

Jeremy

It is zinc. I would ask for a photo of the catch, weight and measurements. I also think you can do better.

If I add another 100 euro,I can have a nice one,I'm not used to spend a lot of money on awards,but I will this time,it's gonna look great on my display.

thanks!!
