    Junker Eagle

    Just as an aside! This is the same eagle, although a poor quality photo, but the wreath is different! Look at the next photo, of the reverse!

    Cheers,

      Junker/Deumer Eagle

      Now the back! These have been discussed at some point in time and the reference to parts sharing by the manufacturers. Just thought I'd throw a twist into it!

      Cheers,

                Hi Dazar,

                Let me turn this around. You've loaded your badge into a thread with a lot of good clear detailed images of Juncker LW Para Badges. What is your opinion of your badge? Do you have concerns?

                Regards

                  Hello Mike K, interesting twist,badges are very spooky these days, i would like opinions from veterans in the badge collecting community. i feel that the badge is good from doing research in books, forum, and other sites. but i would like to have reassurance so i can tuck it away and appreciate it, if you know what i mean!!!!!!

                  thanks

                  david

                    Hi David,

                    Nice to know you have done some research - sometimes around here it seems that's not the case!

                    From what I can see, I agree, I think the badge is genuine. The maker mark on that angle is a bit unusual but not a major cause for concern as the form looks correct (from what I can see anyway). Not much - if any - fire-gilding on the obverse but still an nice honest example. Personally, I think you can sleep easy.

                      thanks mike k,

                      as you said the maker mark is a bit unusual, but i found the same marker mark on page 149 of "RED SHINES THE SUN" by Eric Queen. GREAT BOOK!!!!!!The hallmark stamping looks identical to a 2nd pattern army/para badge in aluminum listed on that page. What year do you think my badge was made? the research and detective work is 90% of the battle, i think all young collectors should buy many reference books, study the forums, ask many questions, and pray! i take the approach is everything is guilty till proven innocent. THANKS

                      DAVID

                        Hi David,

                        That's not an easy question, unless you've handled lots of GROUPINGS (ie Badge + Doc) straight from the German veteran - I readily admit to not having that sort of experience!

                        I've only seen a handful of Juncker's "first pattern" thin wreath LW Para Badges (the ones with the Assmann-LIKE eagle, but definitely not Assmann). I'm guessing production of those was fairly short-lived, finishing in maybe '37 or '38 at the latest. Your "textbook" example with tombak eagle and ?nickel-silver wreath could be anywhere from late '30s to early '43 (assuming Juncker changed to zinc around the latter time). If the wreath is tombak instead of nuckel-silver, then I'd date your badge in the later part of that timeframe. Manybe someone else can be more specific based on die flaws / die wear.

                        Regards
                        Mike K
