Freies arabian shoulder insignia?

Opinions? I've only seen one other one.

Hi There.
This looks extremely good.
I would say from your photo that this is an original. Keep it safe...
Regards,
Mark.

If the background, around the shield is not a light green-gray, it is a fake. The fakes have black-gray around the shield.

Bob,
I would like to see a comparison photo if possible?

Definately green grey

The part you would fold or cut away is green grey if that's what you are saying.

Greetings,

I agree with Bob on these. There is a bunch of these Bevo style made out of nylon with darker grenish base material and grey base material. You can feel them immediately that they are some sort of man made material. I dont have this exact patch but some from this strain.

I think we're in the clear then because this one doesn't fit the nylon strain at all. I do believe it's the real deal, certainly not one I've run across before so very exciting.

Greetings PATMAN,

From what I see that you posted IMHO it is a reproduction.

Hello,

Patman : your badge is a copy easy to obtain. As indicated it very exactly Mr Hritz, the background on which is weaved the badge must be green and not black. You will find enclosed a comparison an authentic badge (to the left) and an copy identical in yours (to the right). The difference is evident.

Mr. Hritz : magnificent badge

Cordial greetings.

Reviving this thread with an observation

i WAS ABOUT TO LIST THIS ONE IN THA BAZAAR WHEN I NOTICED SOMETHING. Please take a look at the fake example shown and then mine. Notice that although the background color is very dark green the weave is entirely different. Is that worthy of reopening the discussion as I would think the color variation is more likely than construction variations. In any case the two examples, Mine and the fake example, are different in weave.
