Jo has never examined my badge, unless his microscope can see things all the way over here in Canada ,
I'm not sure what Jo meant by saying:
"The three cast fakes on this thread mentioned by me (RonR, Stephen - Gaston) were also examined in detail and exposed under magnification to be - what they are - poorly cast reproductions."
Jo never "examined" mine. Don't know about ROnR or Gaston's. Maybe he looked at one he thinks is similar to mine based on a 72 dpi screen image, except if he had, he would have seen it clearly is not a "poorly cast reproduction." As I said, solid copper (tested by a chemist friend of mine).
I can't imagine there's a big market for such an obscure pin, but I only have $50 in it. Regardless, a cursory look tells you it is not cast.

Originally posted by Matthew View PostI have to ask Stephen- how is it possible that Rivett examined your pin in detail and under magnification to be a cast fake but your findings are the exact opposite?

BTW- your story matches Ron's. Sad.

Your "cursory" test tells you what you want to hear, and you write what goes with the flow on this thread. Your badge is cast, end of story. If you wish to promote anything to the contrary, you would need to prove it.
As the Party Badge book conclusively showed on more than one occasion, you were wrong on a few issues before, in-print, and therefore your mere words alone cannot be trusted without being supported by anything. Fact, not a jab.
Here is a micro-video of a cast badge - identical to yours - compared to the genuine.

Stephen, RonR and Gaston:
Since Herr Rivett deals only in the "unedited truth" there is no longer any room for debate.
If Jo says something is a fake, then all doubt is removed.
Just be thankful we have such an expert to tell us how to think.
Those obscure stickpins of yours that are readily available all the time, and at every show, in their multitudes, and practically growing on trees, because they are reproductions, are just junk, and be happy Jo deemed to come from above to the mud of the earth to be kind enough to tell you so.
Next stop trash bin!
I'd be happy to take them off your hands for ten bucks each.
Any takers?Last edited by Gary Symonds; 09-18-2015, 05:29 PM.

I have never had anyone want to pay me hard cash for the fake - after it is exposed as such, but we live and learn. At least i can recoup 10 of the 30 it cost me.
You have my eMail, thats my PayPal mail as well, so i`ll just wait for your payment shall i? I have your address already.

With the "unedited truth" you saved us again from ourselves.Last edited by Gary Symonds; 09-18-2015, 06:25 PM.
