Kreissieger advice needed

[Thomas Bendixen]

Hi guys

I bought this mintish Ferd. Wagner Kreissieger recently 195 Euros and don't know if I should return it to the dealer. It wasn't quite clear on the dealer pictures and I overlooked the solder blob on the reverse. I suspect it might just be a productionrelated sloppy soldering job but thought I would ask you guys. Repair or not? Return or not?

hello thomas
your photos are bad!
for me your badge is good ! but for my opinion it is strange why the hj diamon is silver ?, on my kreissieger and in general the hj diamon is bronze on the kreissieger ! siver is on the gaussieger!!
other opinions to confirm?
best regards

I think silver on the diamond of a Kreissieger is common. Wait untill Stu has given his thoughts.

The solder blob is just a bit sloppy work no more, no less IMO.

Thanks everyone for your advice. I have come to the conclusion that the solder spot is just a sloppy solder job. Had it been a repair the heat would have have damaged the finnish around where the heat would have been applied.

Thanks to the great staff at Emerodato for kind and quick correspondance willingly offering a return.

Mine is another victim of a bit sloppy work.
