Hello to all, this is my first post. . I have this SS tinnie in sell, i think it is original but i need seconds opinions.

Thanks to all!.

I have always believed that the above pin is a fake.

Maybe this is a variant that I ´haven´t heard of or something like that, but shouldn´t they be marked like this one the reverse? See pic below.

[Pickelhaube]

Yes two models diferents. But no fake.

I posted a link on the SS forum, I hope the thread will get some more opinons from advanced SS collectors, they will now for sure.

From my experience, both the "E" & "D" series of brooches are all marked this way. I'd be happy with this in my collection.

Enough said!

I likewise don't see any red flags on this one, both marking variants are known to be period.
I've seem them RZM marked, now those without question are fake.

[Peppe864]

Okay! I rest my case!

And I am happy to have learned something useful today.

I commend you for speaking up Peppe, probably too many hold their thoughts, except in the most obvious of cases.

You can add the "L" series as well.

Look closer.........

The "L" series have Ges. Gesch, the "E" & "D" do not.

Don,

I thought you were refering to the fact that the "E" & "D" series have "DESCHLER MCHN.9" on the top and the serial number on the bottom. Regardless, the point is the brooch in question is a good one.

AB.
