L/53 Badges in Tombak

[Hans N]

Hello gentlemen,

since me and a another member have a differance in opinion i thought i might start a new research but to do it i´ll need your help to do it.

I would like to see as many makermarks of L/53 made in buntmetal as possible so please post what you have here and we´ll take it from there.

The reason i want to go thru this is that i beleave that there are many Badges mistaken as L/53´s that infact are L/52´s.

Obverse/reverse and a good close up on the makermark is what i want to see so please help me out at this. But i am only interested in badges made in buntmetal not zink.

Thanks in advance!
Regards
Hans

Hans:

I don't have one of these badges myself, but I do have a decent photo archive of the L/53s, L/52s and those with "confusing" maker marks (tombak variations). I am watching this thread with interest, with the hope that some of the owners of the badges will post their own photos.

I would be happy to contribute images, but don't want to impose on the other members ability to do so. If no one responds, I'll give it a shot.
