Verwundetenabzeichen in Schwarz - Franz Jungwirth
Hi,
I have the opportunity to buy this Franz Jungwirth set. But I cannot find a reference to this badge or envelope.
I have seen a Jungwirth set with a integrated hinge/catch and with the "classic" wounds badge envelope.
So what do you think?
Thanks

I can't comment on the maker, but the badge itself looks okay....
cheers, Glenn

The packet looks O.K. to me, but the badge has me wondering as I've only seen Jungwirth wound badges with a fully integrated set up before.May be it's an accepted variation or perhaps a put together set, who knows? Not me!
Regards, Ned.

badge is good.
No doubt about that, but the question is if it's correct for the packet, otherwise it's a pointless acquisition.by harryamb2

At the risk of throwing a spanner in the works, this badge looks like it could be a low rim/ dog bone fake to me.

Hi Jonas
I couldn't elaborate this morning as I had to leave for work. The first thing that struck me was the lack of rear rivet. That is not always a no-no, but then we have the very pronounced "dog bone" interior to the bow & the hardware type that is most often found on these badges. The hinge & catch positions will vary. Have a read of this link from 2009, especially post # 2 & post # 15.

I posted this set in the GCA forum as well and there it is stated as the "low rim" fake.

More comments on the GCA forum has confirmed that it is a "low rim" fake, so Brett was right
I learn new thing every day
This "low rim" is really dangerous.
