    Default New Purchase

    Hi everyone,

    I made another purchase from the fellow I mentioned in a previous post. He is slowly selling his militaria collection to me and in the following pics are my most recent aquisitions from him. These pieces look good to me but I am totally in the dark as to what to look for as far as makers marks etc. So, I come the experts here to help me determine authenticity and value. I gave $930 for this group so I hope I did well or at least broke even.

    These 3 pics are quickies and I can provide much better close up's if needed.

    Thank you,
    Josey

    Everything looks good so far! Can you post better pics of the EK1 and Panzerkampfabzeichen please?

    I like the looks of everything except the round swastika pin, EKI and the Panzer Badge.
    Not sure of those of until closer inspection, as per Adrian's suggestion.

    I think you did well for this entire grouping...............!

    The Sports Badge in bronze is good, I know that much.

    The round small-size swastika pin is possibly suspect....

    The Panzerkampfabzeichen looks ok to my untrained eye, hopefully some other members who know more about these will add their opinions......

    Not sure about the EK1. It looks like a Souval but the '3' in '1939' should dip slightly lower than the other numbers, this one doesn't seem to. Can you post clearer, closer pics of the date please? Also of the beading around the inner and outer corners?
