BWB, WW1 Gold, 2nd Issue Gold WB - for review & bashing!

[munsongary]

Good afternoon:

Presenting these for review by the experts on the Forum. The following is what I see, and believe - but would like to be told I am wrong .....

BWB: Appears to be an unissued pre May-1945 production. Steel composition - appears to be rusted at some points on the reverse.

WW1 Gold: Appears to be a post May-1945 production badge.

Gold 2nd Issue WB: Difficult to tell given the rather poor photos I was presented. I am calling this a post May-1945 production badge.

Huge thanks, as always
Gary

HI Hary,

well not the best pics for judge from but the "Gold 2nd Issue" as you call it is a post war Souval badge. The other 2 i´d like to see some better pics from if possible.

Hello Hans:

These came from the Seller; I do not have these in hand. I will see if I can get better pics!

I am almost 100% positive you are correct about the Gold 2nd Issue.

Huge thanks,
Gary

Well Ronny confirmed what i was afraid of. With 2 bad apples then the 3rd is most likely one as well
Good eyes Ronny

Perfect!!! Huge thanks for the info. I was positive the Gold WB was post-war, so passed on the group. When looking at groups I am not sure of, I live by the motto:
Falsus in uno, falsus in omnibus
