Ok I have been collecting party badges for about 8 years now. All of the Heil Hitler badges I have seen are usually the coffin pin plate fakes.
This one how ever, is a little confusing to me. The pin plate looks correct, but it also contains a later M1 RZM code along with the Ges. Gesch. (which when both are present, usually means FAKE). I found this badge on a reputable dealers website and never known them to be pushing fakes. I would expect this sort of badge on Snyders Treasures, but not this well known dealers site.
Whats every ones opinions? Going on what I know after 8 years of collecting, I am saying this is a fake. But I have been wrong from time to time and others opinions are needed. I also haven't found this badge in the Party Badge Book (by Jo Rivett) that just arrived today in the mail.
Thanks all in advance.
Cheers
Brian
