Fahnenträger Gorget

[Satcong101]

Can anyone please confirm whether these Gorgets were originally Silver or possibly a Gilt plated finish as this one appears to have been stripped back to the brass base metal and was wondering what the original finish should be? (Note: Photo does appear to make it look silver but in hand this gorget is clearly brass).

Sorry bad.

as Adelheim says: bad to the bone. The marking and the RZM are the give-away!

Interesting thanks guys suspected as much, not mine but fortunately my friend (the owner) paid little for it so no great loss.

Out of interest how would you tell a fake from an original and could these stamps have been added to Gucci it up? How detailed are the fakes?
