No worries on this one Briolf imo. Here's one from Wittman's Militaria for comparison. Best regards.

I always thought that the coffin shaped pin holder was a no-no. Perhaps there are exceptions? I am not sure - am still learning how to identify the good from the bad

Hello Stah the attachment plate is not the coffin plate shaped one seen on postwar badges. The elongated oval shape was a period original plate, attached images are period manufactureres ads seen in Jo Rivett s party badge book. Best regards.

Ah, that's great. Just the type of info I was hoping for.
I had seen several items in the last few weeks which had what I believed to have been "coffin shaped" pin holders. I now see that these items were all OK.
Thanks heaps Brian. Much appreciated.
