SWB 127 Replaced Pin ???

[ERIC LIN]

Hi All

Here is my new buy,

I thought the pin is a bit suspicious, is it a replaced pin?

I have searched for many examples, all are pin with sharpened end, but my example

not, need your comments

thanks

Good question because the pin seems to be in better condition as the badge but i can't give you a answer on it. Imo this pinhas a good chance to be a good one.

Hi Andreas
thanks for your comments, the pin and the back have its most silver finish remained.
so at this point both consistent and legit.
but the pin seems thinner and no sharp end at this example come to a question mark on my mind.

hope you guys could post another 127 example as same as mine

thanks

Hi Eric,

i have no similiar one in my collection or files .... but the design of the needle wouldn't be a problem for me. If the needle has the same finish as the badge than it is imo a good sign.
