Hi Yorksman and welcome to the forum.
I have to agree with Steve. I can't match anything up to a known original from this maker. The wreath is wrong, the eagle is wrong, the rivets, finishing and reverse hardware all have issues unfortunately. Looking at the interior lining of the case I suspect this also to be a fake.

I must agree with my friends, sorry.

Cheers, Ade.

Not original, its easy to determine, because JMME was the only one who used only silver wreath on his PARA badges, the eagle is also totally different:

Hi

Without a doubt - set which started this thread is not original.

Janos

Jmme used only silver wreath - as the matter of fact not true .As long Juncker was involved in some stage of production / assembling - darkened wreath may be encountered ( Durante's type H , F ).
