    A couple of badges for review: Flak (Hobacher) and LGAB (Brehmer)

    I would appreciate any thoughts or opinions on these two badges.

    Note the soft detail on the flak badge. Almost looks like it was sanded. Shows a bit of zinkpest. The eagle's left wing is bent.

    The eagle looks oddly formed on the Luftwaffe ground assault badge.

    Hopefully my photos will provide enough detail to make a determination.

    Thanks in advance. All help is greatly appreciated!

          The Hobacher flak is original based on the metallurgical profile and finish. It appears to have been filed, or abraded in some manner. Possibly was battle damaged.
          The Brehmer LGAB I leave to others to judge; cannot say for certain.

            The Hobacher flak is a fine original.

            The LGAB is a cast fake imo.

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