A nice badge to come along and it doesn't look too worn! Thank you for sharing the photos Klaus, much appreciated.

Superb looking award!....
A nice original PKA "25" Klaus. Stewy
I hate to be the nay sayer, but I'm not too sold on this one. I Like the construction of it, but what is particularly troubling are the wreath leaves on the left side where the logs protrude into the wreath-and again on the right side both above and below the tank. They have almost no detailing to them. I realize, naturally, that these badges were hand assembled, but there are too many small detail differences to induce me to accept this one. I could well be looking at this one too cautiously, but I would not be adding this to my collection.

Good observation William. Hopefully it will provide a little more discussion now than when it was posted a year and a half ago!

It's Stewy and Paul's fault! They posted before I did! I wasn't looking at the date! lol

I was surprised when Klaus posted it that no more comments were made! This one slipped under the radar.

The badge is fine, several key points that are not found on fakes but are seen on all originals are present.
