Re: SWB mm L24 Help please Opinions welcomed
Hi,
The photos are not of a standard I am comfortable with, especially the obverse shot with flash. But overall I will say that based on these photos it looks like a good silver Fritz Zimmerman with the wide pin to me. The examples I have seen matching this badge have been double marked ('L24' and '6' on the pin), but I wouldn't worry too much about that. The reverse setup looks exactly right for this maker (they also used narrow pins and a different hinge). I'm not so knowledgeable on these badges in general and someone who has more experience with these might perhaps be able to tell you if it is 100% original or not, even with the horrible obverse photo.
I can't tell you whether these badges are scarce or not.

Hi Kenneth, Thanks for the reply and opinions. I agree, the pics are not very good. I think the back also looks OK like others I have seen. Maybe someone else will see this and have an opinion also, but it will be hard to tell without a good pic of the front I guess. Maybe I will wait for another to come along, and save my money this time.

Hi Nick, thanks....but it's me, Steve..... not Kenneth that's asking about this L24 badge
I wanted to buy it..... if it's a good one. It's within the price range I wanted to pay.....the other one I showed yesterday marked 100 with nice silver finish and the paper packet & tissue etc is being sold for way too much I think
