SA Treffen 1931

[dragnet]

I did see one one these posted a while ago with the same pin, not much replies but it was thought that it might be a replaced pin, well this is the second one now, replacment pin? What i do like is the crisp strike but im not holding my breath

Apparently those are reproductions coming out of Italy. I forget which website they sell out of (it has been posted before when those have been discussed).
If I remember correctly the key was hardware and offset S. Now when I called the fellow selling those (Mario if I remember correctly) he admitted to me that some of the pins advertised for sale they have they are using pictures of real badges instead of illustrating the actual reproductions. I never ordered any of his creations to compare against the real things but in the brief phone conversation we had he mentioned the 'semi hollow' verso of the 1931 SA Meeting pin. Hopefully someone here remembers the discussion and can provide a link.
Either way- the badge as pictured above wouldn't be for me.

Certainly a reproduction. When compared to what I have, the details just don't match. Set up is a gonner.

Sorry, it is a repro...

All the fake should be as obvious as this one is.

Cheers for the replies, the pin is a dead give away.

Bad one.

Definitely a bad one. Looks like the hinge is cast or part of the badge similar to some zinc wound badge examples.
