I'd appreciate any thoughts on this badge in the link. It is real IMO.
Thank you for replays.

I corrected my post. Won’t happen again.
Not one I am familiar with.
My references show an example by this maker with a dished reverse.
Wait for other opinions.

It looks a lot like the example in Tucker and Previtera Vol I, pages 106-107. Unfortunately they only provided two photos (straight on obverse and reverse) and it's not enough to say anything conclusive. I wish they had provided photos of the hinge pad. They do not attribute a maker to their photos of that example.

It appears a close match to the Juncker versions 1.23.3 and/or 1.23.3 in Frank Heukemes' book. The only difference is the base of the hinge where it attaches to the badge, is rounded on this example, whereas the examples in the book show a base that has rounded edges but still a roughly rectangular shape. I don't know if that is maybe just a normal production variation. The front of the badge appears very close. I would suggest a photo of the hardware from the side would allow more definitive comparison.
I only have these pictures. Thanks for info. What do you think about Orth version GAB?
There are some differences between the bagde you showed, and the Orth versions in my references. But that is only what is in my references. If this is a badge you already own, then my advice would be to keep looking through the forums and do some research. I have had some items whose authenticity I could not prove and then much later, I would find an answer.
