before I buy....

[belinda]

Good Morning fellow members.

I would like some of your expertise opinions on these tinnies please (if you don't mind) before I go ahead and buy them.

Many thanks in advance if you wish to help me out here.

kind regards,
Belinda

Hi Belinda,

I like all four of them myself...but I must add that there is a difference of opinion on both the SA-Treffen Braunschweig first and second issue badges, and the one you shared is a second issue piece.

Cheers, my friend -- Happy New Year and happy collecting in 2014!

Hi Belinda,
I like them all especially the HJ once. Jurgen

I like all 4 HJ tinnies. 2 of them I already have and the other 2 would look nice in my display.
Best,
Garry

Hi Belinda, i wouldn't buy the SA-Treffen tinnie, it`s a fake, and can be purchased for much cheaper than the "Experts" sell them for on Repro-sellers sites. (€15.- is the price on Mili-biz) (eMedals just sold a fake like this for $185.-)

[belinda]

Thank you so much to all of you who have helped me out here.... x
They are not cheap, and so the last thing that I want to do is buy four copies that ain't worth nothing, but now knowing that they are all original, then I think that the money will be well worth spent, as I think that all four are quite hard to find.

Many thanks to all of you once again as your help is much appreciated.

kind regards,
Belinda.

Ah I have just seen your reply Josef, thank you very much for letting me know and so I will stay well clear of this one... x

I agree on the Braunschweig Treffen badge. Although there are some collectors who feel this variant is original, I prefer the more 'standard' 2nd style Treffen badge, which can be solid or hollow stamped and has the "S" directly above the "R".

Many thanks for your opinion Erich as I always do take in on what fellow members say as I so love the hobby, but I am no expert, and so that is why I ask if other members would help me out from time to time.
Yes I have definitely decided to leave this one well alone.

thank you...x

and a Very Happy New Year to you all...xx
