SA Sports Badge: Fake ?

[Adrian Stevenson]

Hi Aldo, it looks OK to me? I don't understand what he means by a variation, as it appears conventional.

Cheers, Ade.

Hello Ade, thank God you are back. I'm drowning here. I referred to it as a variation because I compared it to the wounded version I posted earlier. My mistake. Thanks, Al

[Adrian Stevenson]

Ah...... I see. That would be comparing apples with oranges

Cheers, Ade.

Hello Aldo

I have recently bought an SA Sports War Wound Badge & thought you would like to see an ORIGINAL. Recently found ground dug. If the price is right I may sell.

@Welchman:
Good probability to find RZM (logo) + M1/100 (Werner Redo - Saarlautern).
The only of two company known who used the RZM logo, other company M1/52 (Deschler - Munchen) used only M1/52.
I would remember this a very late war badge, if I remember good institued on 1944.

@Aldo:
first Wounded Sport Badge is fake, sorry.
Last one you showed is a good but normal SA Sport Badge, no wound badge, on bronze.
Looks like good the very low number tipical to the first exemplars.
Remember we have 3 types of MM on rear, about the SA PROPERTY, who detect a 3 different time of attribuation and all issued on the 3 rank (gold, silver and bronze).
If you like it, buy it.
The very very rare is a Naval SA Sport Badge.
On rear of wounded badge, we found ONLY the two types of RZM mark that I explained above to Welchman.

That is only my personal opinion, happy this help you.

Listen too these guys when they say dont get down! Im sure everyone remembers the fake helmets I posted on here when I joined! Since then I have consintrated on my stronger areas that I have references for and more experience handling. I have not touched another helmet since. Someday I will have enough knowledge to confidently buy German helmets. Keep going and happy hunting! Regards, Lee
