U-Boat Badge/ U-Boots-Kriegsabzeichen

[HDTony]

Now I did find this one a little more interesting and again please understand I am just a novice in this field. I do hope the scans are ok. Feel free to let me know anything that we know about this one.

Thank you again Ade for your help.

My opinion : Copy

Hi, I realise that the scan is not brilliant and the detail to the eagle looks a bit soft.

Is it made from Zinc?

Cheers, Ade.

Thank you Pierre.
Ade, Zinc ? I thinik it is Zinc, It does not allow a magnet to "stick" to it as they say. So perhaps yes.

The problem I have is I have nothing but a scanner to take the pictures. Try as i can I just have all kinds of trouble making good copies. Know I will correct the problem one of these days, If I don't keep buying fakes I will have the money for a camera, lol
Thank you NIck

The U-boat link is great, lots of very good information for the novice and the veteran collector. I am getting closer and learning more every day !

Thank you
