    SS Munich Tinnies for revue

    Hello, Since these are being faked by several crooks and plain scoundrels, I would like to get other opinions on these, I know the one has the bad pin plate and it is bad, but I would also like to bring attention to the fakes.
    The one on the left is made of heavier steel and is 44.94mm and the one on the right is 45.13mm.
    Thanks Jack

    I know of none that are real. As I understand, the meeting that this tinnie celebrates never took place or, at least, cannot be substantiated. The design is a rip off of another day badge.

      Hello, I have seen it in more than one reference book, including Tieste's page 668 Munchen 33-02. Even though it does not mean anything. But There is more than one other tinnie similar to it. Thanks for your response, Jack

          They are fantasy pieces in my opinion. While Tieste writes a good reference, there are fakes listed in his books.

            I agree, not one that I would have in my collection.

              I think one of the issues with these is there was no verifiable "SS" Gautag in Munich in 1933.

                Thanks Guys, I will destroy these, I do not even want to give them away. It seems they were made for deception only. Richard, I never doubted your opinion, I just wanted to hear what a few other members had to say. I thank everyone for taking the time to respond. If you want I can post new pictures of them smashed properly. Regards Jack

                  Jack, no need to destroy them as they are also collectable in their own right as fantasy pieces. I would suggest just etching or scratching "Copy" on the reverse to prevent them being passed off as original in the future.
