Hi Adam,

I found a few other examples of the NSLB Dresden 1933 (Hans Schemm Haus) tinnie on the net. Each one is a bit different in design and pin configuration. The one on the left appears to resemble yours. I prefer the one in the middle, which is a crisp, hollow-back die-striking and maker marked to Gustav Brehmer of Markneukirchen. My guess, though, is that all of these are probably originals, the differences being attributed to different manufacturers.

I'm not certain on this so, hopefully, some others will respond.

Best regards,
Tom

I think its probably a Polish fake.

Hello Adam, sadly the Badge that you posted is a fake
The Three examples below that Tom posted the 2nd and 3rd are of Genuine TR manufacture. However the silver example although original is not the original finish.
If one looks carefully at the first Badge one can see from the reverse that the Badge lacks the definition one would expect to see from a period die strike.......in other words the
detail is dire. The pin assembly is another give away.

Hello guys,

Thanks for the information. I want to clarify, though, that none of the tinnies I show in post #2 belong to me. I found those images on the net while trying to help Adam with information about the tinnie he posted. I assume that this tinnie is one that is hard to come by and therefore it has been faked to some degree.

I can see now that the fake is pretty sloppy by comparison. The wreath has no symmetry at all and the Hakenreuz is deformed, in addition to the other flaws that have already been pointed out. It's almost surprising, though, that the fake has cutouts around the top and bottom of the flag while the originals do not.

But now, if one of these should ever come my way, I will know exactly what to look for.

Thanks again & best regards,
Tom

Another fake:

This is the only other example I found pictured on the net. The wreath on this one is more symmetrical, but the Hakenkreuz is still deformed and it has the cutouts around the flag. The vertically-configured, bellied pin, block hinge, and round wire catch certainly give this one away.

Best regards,
Tom

Hello Tom, I have to admit I had not noticed that the background to the Standard on the fakes was cut out.
Although not one of the scarcest Badges to encounter as you know there are many fakes of this particualr Badge out there.
