Hello Frank and welcome to the forum!

I have edited the title to your thread to use the correct German terminology and removed the photo that you posted by mistake. These are not my area of collecting but someone will be along to help. That being said, I see no immediate red flags on this, but I may be wrong.

Ralph.

Looks like a good 1943 piece to me.

**harryamb2** · 09-12-2014, 09:08 PM

looks ok to me.

Hello,
It is a good badge. I used to own one myself that I bought at a yard sale back in the 70's. Here are pictures of my former badge to compare it too.

A lovely piece, nice neat rivets, I think it may be an FLL43 made piece but I may be wrong. one day I would like to be able to get a nice one like this. Leon.

Hello,
I thought the FLL43 type had a hinge and a riveted reverse on them like this.

I agree. Not an FLL at all, but a Juncker 3rd pattern zinc badge that's typically unmarked imo.

Regards, Ned.

Wrong again! But then again that's nothing new! Thanks for putting me straight Jody and Ned!. Leon.

The tallons of the starting badge have cut outs. I think it is the first time for me, that i see an zinc APB from Juncker with this details. Are coming these badges sometimes with this detail?

Thanks in advance

Joe
