Kesselrings Pilot-Observer Badge with Diamonds

[Sebastien T]

I'm curious how these fakes are made, the stones, what are they, material of the badge ?

Just bringing it to a very reputable jeweller and get the stones check buy using a magnify glass or a stone tester and do the same with the gold and platinum. He will tell right away what's the badge is made of. If he come back and the stone end up to be cubic zirconian you will be fix. Investing such an amount of money, I would find the right guy and get this done whatever the costs are and the time that could take.

Hello Ludwig,

If you are in doubt, you are always welcome to examine the badge for your self.
You know where I live. Just give me a call.

Perhaps it would be good with a second opinion, in case of a sale.

I´t is hard to see any difference between Sperrle´s and "Kesselring´s, don´t you think?

Peter

Not very. IMO.
