Nahkampfspange in Bronze Original? No manufacture.

[Gibello]

I offer this piece has no manufacturer and finish what I see with many bubbles, which do you think?

Hi Gibello,

in my opinion,a bronze clasp from Funcke & Brüninghaus (F&BL),with a postwar silber finish.I would it not have in my collection.Pictures are not the best,to say 100% it is original or a "Gußkopie".

Regards
Joachim

From these photos it looks like a poorly cast fake, especially from the reverse shots.

I see a lack of definition in the leaves

With this bad photos i am not sure about this clasp.Backside looks very poor,you are right Adrian.But it can be from the bad silver colour.

I would it not buy...
