    Hi my friends,

    I'm sorry but I have always the same doubts about it.

    it has many points that can be compared as a Juncker piece but there are many points too they are strange for a juncker .

    over the catch and the beak , other points are not nice , especially in reverse side..
    for example wreath is different comparing a "normal" 3rd pattern , with a "round " form in every parts ( characteristic of many reproduction of pilot badges ) . Differences are evident between Yuri's example too.

    always from reverse side you can see different points in the eagle too.
    look the rivets, they have not a good round definition, usual in every Juncker badges.

    position of hinge .

    Alloy is strange.

    claws.

    catch doesn't seam to be removed and replaced, it has no crash area around .

    maybe I am wrong and this is a original one but these are just only my thoughts around it.

    Yuri is right about the flaw, mine has not.

    regards

    ivan
    Hi Ivan, thanks for your input... I think that most of your concerns are due to the my bad photography of this piece, something I've tried to rectify below.. I find that closeup photography, with my camera, tends to make all PB's look rounder than they actually are... This badge is the normal oval shape.
    The rivets are, and I hope the new pic will show this, totally right for Juncker being well domed and set in a ring of solder..
    The strange alloy effect Is caused by the light I used which turned the Image that strange hue of green, Hopefully corrected in the new Image..
    The hinge Is an exact match to the one Yuri posted, down to the tooling rub at the top of the pin..
    Claws, look a little strange due to the righthand talon not being finished properly, in other words not having been cut away from the 'Swaz'..
    I have had a good look at the replaced catch and have found a platform of solder that is a little bigger than the catch it's self Where the original catch would have sat, but this point I'm not 100% sure of..
    I hope that the new Images will give you a better Idea as to the overall look of the badge and It's colour..I think It's time to get a new scanner, then these problems would not be encountered...

        .....YES !! MUCH BETTER

        now I like it much more.

        rivets are

        Sure catch is replaced.

        Now I see the right oval form and a bit vaulted too.

        following is the point I mean in my last topic.
