    Hello Valfrum. IMO this looks like a poorly made fake, the detail is not there at all. It looks crude and cast, without finished edges. And the seller omitted the complete shot of the pin (not seeing the traditional twist seen with stickpins) as well as what looks to me an incorrect pin attachment method, so without the whole image I wouldn't consider this piece. JMO. Best regards.

    BTW welcome to the forum.

    Bad. It's very crudely cast indeed.

    (It's the Zollgrenzschutz-Ehrenzeichen, by the way.)

    Yeah, once I got this collection up close (shipped) it didn't hold to my expectations.
