Hi Nick


The L24 is an original badge in very nice shape but the catch is a replacement

The silver 65 looks like the old cast bad 65, the mark over the hinge is one of the bad signs, the pin is one more.

Can you please post some measurements and weight of the badge?

Cheers,
Ronny

Hi Ronny


I don't agree on your views concerning the pin, everything looks period in hand. I found this one on a flea market between jewelry so the source is good as well.

Opinions on the fourth are welcome. I showed that one some times before and never had any concerns about it yet.


Greetz & thx for the input

Hi

Here are some different 65 badges for compare
All pins have a small "dent" just under the hinge
and they all have a sharp end

Some more opinions would be nice

Cheers,
Ronny

The L 24 looks like a replaced catch to me....I also do not like the silver
65....Do not like the mark over hinge...Do not like the 65...Right sword looks flat plus rear riveit looks not there....Also no dent on pin up at hinge.
Not for me

Indeed the L/24 has a replaced catch and the 65 is well known fake.

Here is a old discussions about fake 65´s
