    From a quick glance it appears to be an original badge.

    However, this is ANOTHER P/O that has f-ed up rivets.

    The gold on the wreath looks too thick to me and leads me to believe it's a repaint and probably acually a fairly trashed regular pilot's badge that has been "remanufactured" by someone to get some extra cash out of it.

    Obviously the clasp has been replaced.

    You can see in this shot that the finish is quite fine and thin.

    I would pass unless it's incredibly cheap, and even then I might pass.

    Just my opinion.

      Tim is correct, the gold is not.

          Assmann P/O badge

          Hello,
          I agree with the guys the gold is not correct. Here is my example for a comparison. Look at the gold on my badge.

          Regards,
