    I´m quite sure that this badge is not original. Sorry mate

    Sometimes you see them with different maker marks

    Cheers

      boy, if that is true, these fakes are getting as good as the originals! The only defects I see are a few spots that were not covered by the silver plating.

      I'm going to hate to return this one.

      Karsten, is this a cast or die struck fake?

        There is no maker that correspond to the design of the eagle of my knowledge. I believe it´s a homemade design.

        Maybe somebody else have more info on it.

            Not even close. You need to consider more than materials - like design. Which maker did you think it was?

              Hello Marc!
              I had no idea as to maker - that's why I asked.

              please look at the LW flak I posted.
              I'm sure many of us look forward to seeing your new flak book!
              on approval - same source as this badge.
