[Farradin]

Hello. Have my doubts on this one.... What do you think? Is it legit?

Anyone.... please?

I am not an expert, but I have never seen an authentic Eagle like this before. What gives you the idea it is SS or SA?

Maybe someone else will come along and say differently, but I have red flags going up on this one.

I do not like the pins on this model 1929 political eagle. They are too long. In my opinion, a fake. This pattern was worn by the SA, SS and NSDAP formations on their kepis and schirmutze until the introduction of the model 1935 adler.

This Hoheitszeichen with the M1 25 is a British fake.

The 1927/9 Hakenkreuzkokarde is a subtle thing, and the RZM marks of the fake symbolize a fatal flaw.

No one of these badges in my property is entirely like the other.

Thank you for the thank you. Too often, research and response is meant with silence.
