Hello all! Considering purchasing this GAB, but not sure I like the way it looks...details seem a little soft. I thought I would let the experts weigh in before I spend the cash...all opinions welcome please!

Pictures aren't the best for a definitive answer regarding if it's genuine or not, but from the look of it it's a minty 1.25.1 (unknown maker) solid zinc badge with a known variant set up. I'm not aware of these being faked yet, but better straight on pic's focussed and taken in natural light or scanned images as below, would certainly help confirm if it's original or not.

Thanks for the help Ned, I'll try to get some better pics, but I will probably grab it since you are reasonably confident that it's original, and the price on it is good.
I probably would as well, but check and see if the guy has a returns policy just to be safe.
Regards, Ned.

Better pics is a must for me. Especially the reverse. Stewy
