    Gold Party Membership Badge. Real or Fake?

    Hi,

    I am wondering if this badge that is advertised on a dealers website is a genuine or a fake please?

    Here are a couple of pictures:





    I have quite a few nice 3rd Reich collectables now and a genuine one of these would be a great addition.

    Many thanks,

    Joe

    Hi Joe, compare the badge you have shown with the original Deschler 25mm sized badge shown here:

    Cheers, Ade.

      This is edited as I have had a good look at the badge and the site and I really like it!

      I spot that the number is curved and its maker marked so its unusual if its original, it actually looks very convincing but that is coming from me, a total novice!

      Does anybody have a opinion on its originality?

      I would be very grateful thanks, also a thanks to ade who has been very helpful.

      Many thanks,

      Joe

          Hi Joe, I wanted you to look at that site I recommended just to see if you noticed anything wrong with the badge. I actually think it is good.

          Cheers, Ade.

            Hi Ade,

            I've edited my original reply to suit a bit more. There are a few pointers that I have picked up off the site that makes me a bit uncofortable that I have mentioned.

            Hopefully it is right as I really want to get my hands on one of these!

            Many thanks,

            Joe

                    There's nothing wrong with that badge - it is a nice, genuine small Deschler.

                    The mistake some people make is assuming they are looking at a large 30.5 mm Gold Party Badge when they are looking at a 24 mm small version. The characteristics are different between them, specifically the number of leaves and the font on the front (round "O"s versus oval ones).
