Help with NSFK Enamel Pins

[Scott C.]

Wow -- those are great badges with a great history.

I'd sure like to know if the previously mentioned rumors about the badges I posted are true. Probably no way to be 100% certain.

Thanks for the help.

Herc-

The "rumor" is not a rumor but fact.

Rumor

Sorry about my comments regarding the "rumor". I was not there when the fake badges were sold by the European dealer (someone whose last name begins with an "F" perhaps?). Thus, for me it was information passed down through several levels. That's a "rumor" for me but not for someone who was there, as Bob was.

I appreciate it when we document these things. I am also glad to be able to provide photos of ones that actually came from a man who was actually awarded them. I am delighted to have these in my collection. But I have not added any other ones since.

OK -- understand what "rumor" means now. Thanks. My "Oops" collection just got bigger!
