          A good flak but I don't like the image hosting service. Next time download your photos and post them directly on the thread.

          Regards,

              The "Lizard head" is what scares me. The problem is that it looks like this which is a copy. Also I don´t know what are small bumps on the back of the badge

                  WTF is wrong with the Niemann badge? If that is a fake, I am a woman!

                    I hoped that you will tell us.

                      Detlev was wrong about that badge, it is a perfectly fine original "ball hinge" flak. Ball hinge flak badges are the most common type of LW flak badge, so I am quite surprised Detlev made a mistake on that one.

                      p.s., Garlasco is still a woman!
                      If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

                          And what about those small bumps on the back of the badge? If it is supposed to be made of tombak those bumps shouldn´t be there, am I right? These bumps shouldn´t be on the cast badge.

                              I do not understand that. Either this badge is original or a very good copy...does anybody have the photo that Detlev used as the "ORIGINAL" in the comparison?
