    Heer Flak badge?

    This looks like what this fellow is sporting, at least to me. Are these things a little on the rare side? The reason I am asking is this one and one other, both from the same grouping are the only ones I have..

    Can we see the other one? This badge looks two-toned with the wreath being shinier than the middle.

          Looks like a mix of badges. The guy on the right has a Heer Flak, the guy in the middle has either a GAB or PAB (can you scan a high res of his badge?) and the guy on the left....

            Here is an unmistakable Heeres-Flakabzeichen, for comparison.

              unfortunatley the photo gets out of focus on that end. but i do agree with your assesment on the possiblities and it does look as if the far left fellow has an EK1

                  Just like you, I have a few from just one group. I don't collect Flak except for a few cases, but surely Heeres-Flakabzeichen is not common to see.

                    Hi,

                    For what it's worth, here's a zoomed image of another one (from a serious non-collector of photos!). It is a loose single, not part of an album or group.

                    Regards

                    Evaluate the item, not the story and not the seller's reputation!

                    If you PM/contact me without the courtesy of using your first name, please don't be offended if I politely ignore you!

                      Two Tone Heer Flak Badge

                      AS I stated early on in joining this forum, I HAVE seen a mint Heer Flak Badge with the gun a dark finish and the wreath and eagle silver just as the one pictured here. This was on a badge that I owned several years ago that was sold to one of my coin stores by a US Army veteran with a lot of German coins he had returned from the war. No doubt of originality and the price was far to cheap from the coin dealer as he didn't even know what the badge was for and was only interested in the coins the man brought back.
