    SS eagles, help?

    Good evening,

    I've noticed these eagles for sale, but I have some doubts regarding them.
    Could you gentlemen tell me if these are fake as I think, or not.
    Thank you!

    Best regards,
    Daniel

        Eagles

        Hi,

        Eagle number 1 - flat wire officers is a reproduction, IMO. The tropical and machine woven look good to me, but I’m viewing on my phone.

          I agree,
          And the middle one looks modern , can’t comment on its originality

          Kind regards Chay

              Sorry - I meant machine embroidered, not woven.

                Thanks for the comments, they are much appreciated!
                Summa summarum:
                Nr.1 is a reproduction.
                Nr.2 is maybe ok or isn't?
                Nr.3 is perfectly fine.

                Best regards,
                Daniel

                  Hello,

                  The eagle #2 you posted shares many of the characteristics of the top eagle in this photo, IMO. It is a U.S. armored division vet acquired piece. However, the machine embroidered reproduction eagles have gotten a lot better in recent years. I circled, in yellow, some of the areas that concern me on eagle #2.

                    Big Foot . . .

                    I cant believe that old big foot has made another star appearance .
                    This eagle has been around from the day one its the biggest flatwire eagle that manages to fool many members.
                    Regards David

                      Hi David,
                      Eagle Nr.1 is the one you refer as big foot?
                      Just to make things clear for myself.


                      Regarding Eagle Nr.2, I lean towards that it's a bit too risky one to even think of buying. Based on the much appreciated comments here.

                        Number 2 is an original.

                          Thanks for the help everyone. I'll be buying eagles #2 and #3.
