Strange Condor badge

[wehrpasswilly]

Hi all, I know this is a repro but never come across one before - does anyone know when these started hitting the market?

Hi

Why is this a repro?

Looks like one of the first type with the 35 helmet
strange color though

Cheers,

I agree.

YES...please show us closer shots, and enlighten us as to WHY this one is a repro? If you are talking about the sword ridge issue, it may just be a production run reject that wasn't rejected. Maybe one of the WB freaks will jump in .

Additional photo's as requested

Hi lads - more photo's as requested - opinions please - reason I think/thought this is a repro is due to the fact that I have never seen this type of badge before or any condor badges without the WW1 helmet.

No Repro

I'm assuming this would have been a black grade?

A good black condor wound badge IMO

Can I ask why is the helmet so different from all the other condor wounds that I've seen (WW1 type) ?

Many thanks for all your input fella's, glad this badge has joined my ever expanding collection and gained some more knowledge in the process - got this in a trade with a friend where both of us believed this was a reproduction. Have let him know and made up the difference.
