Observer's Qualification badge..Opinion's.

[BPA-Paul]

Hi guys,

This Observer's Qualification badge belongs to a friend of mine who is in two minds on this piece, medals are not my strong point but if possible would like some opinions from other TR medal collectors .

Is it Fake or Original ??

Thank you for your time, its much appreciated.

Is it just me or does the hinge look similar to the IMME set up?

AGREED, a reproduction albeit quite well made. The red flags here are the wreath is taken from Juncker and the Osang mark that was never used on original Osang productions IMO.
