      Hi Chuck,

      I can only agree with Seb, a fine original by Friedrich Linden.

      The yellowish area around the hinge and catch is indicative of the type of solder used by FLL. It is quite common to find on badges by this maker, and also sometimes on H&CL badges. Might have been a "Ludenscheid" thing

      If it doesn't have a hinge and catch, I'm not interested......well, maybe a little

            Hi MP716VN,

            Very nice textbook Airgunner badge by unknown maker (FLL) with very good amount of finish on the obverse side.

            If the price is right go for it, and actually these are not seen very often. This is a fine example

                Nice badge.
                It's worth whatever you say it is while it's in your collection. If you were to sell it, it's worth whatever the buyer is willing to pay

                Regards,

                  Don't think this is the answer Chuck is looking for.

                  Chuck, send you a PM.
