Help with party badge authentication

**Adcono** · 04-19-2017, 11:06 AM

Hi I am considering buying a badge I found on an auction website. It looks good to me but I would like to ask the experts here their opinions first. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks

It's fine...

Thank you for the replies I appreciate them. I suspected that it was genuine as I have posted here before asking similar questions after being burned. Through the advice of members here I have learned a lot about the subject however it's certainty not my main collecting hobby and I am no expert so I figured I'd be safe and ask here before buying. Thanks again

Note the detail in the red cloisonné area and the round base for the catch. Good signs. NH

The looped clasp section of the fastener where the pin rest on the left side appears to be bent out of shape. Is this something that would affect its value? Should I attempt to bend it back or leave it as is?
