Any comments on this one guys?
What happened to the 50 numbered badge?
Looking for LDO marked EK2s and items relating to U-406.....
Looks brand new!
I was going to do a seperate posting on the numbered badge. There doesn't seem to be much interest in the badges. I guess there isn't much to say when a badge looks like it was made yesterday.
I hope you will post it again. It's a rare badge and worthy of a separate thread.
Do you know the maker of the above badge?

I hate seeing threads hanging in limbo with next to no replies. Far from being the expert & with only
a few representative examples in my collection, the closest I could find to this particular design is
shown on page 312 of Frank Heukemes book & is unknown maker # 13, type 1.30.1. The example
shown in the book has a round catch plate as opposed to the rectangular one shown in the thread
starter. There is also a minty one of these on Carsten Staegemeirs site with the rectangular plate.
(everything shown on that site seems to be mint )

Hello Adrian
I am fully aware of Staegemeir's antics . perhaps someone more in the know than I could
clarify whether the badge is good or not.

The badge came from a collector. I've never heard of this Carsten Staegemeir before.
Hi guys,
sorry for my late reply, but I'm not that often here in this forum.
Cornernotch bought this badge from me and I never had any doubts about it. It came from private and it was disussed at WAF, GCA, SDA and MFF and there were absolutly no doubts about its originality as well. Furthermore the rectangular catch is well known on this type of GAB.
I really can't unterstand why you are talking about this dealer in relation with this badge just because it's in stunning condition! As far as I remember well the fake in this design which is offered by the mentioned dealer is not the hollow type, but the massive one.
I really would appreciate it to get some further comments, because I don't want that Cornernotch has any doubts about this beautful badge.
Thanks in advance!!!
Best regards
Sven
