    OUCH!!! If it is a reproduction then someone is hurting to the tune of 30,000 euro, perhaps they dont care.

    My understanding was that the number of '20 Juli 1944' wound badges awarded was only 24. Dont think 100 people would have managed to fit around the conference table at Rastenburg/!!

                No I didn't purchase it nor do I know who did. I posted because I didn't want an original badge mislabeled.

                      Don´t throw away your fake WB´s! Get in touch with me.
                      I collect them for reference purposes for the benefit of the hobby (for the right "fake" price of course).

                        Hi,.... (hello Bill, everything oké?)

                        I can only underline Jason Burmeisters comment that the Black wound badge is 100% original.

                          I have had another look and there are certain angles against certain parts of that badge that still don't look quite right to me, but I guess given Pieter and Jason's take on the badge, these must be down to the angle of the photo.

                          Do we know who was awarded this '44 wb?

                                Jason & Pieter,

                                Can either or both of you (heavy hitters) elaborate on the finish of the Black, Silver, and Gold grades? I know they were a bit more elaborate that single tone finishes. Do either of you have images you are free to post (or email me) ?

                                Thanks,
                                Mark

                                PS - The criteria stated that each awardee received the 44 class badge based upon his previous wound badge holdings. Suppose that later in 44 or pre war's end, the original recipient was wounded again, and was bumped up to the next grade of 44 wound badge. Do we know if that individual could then privately purchase that next grade badge, which would (most likely) be 'L' marked? I'm just wondering why the two Juncker makermarks, 2 & L/12...........
