Wiederholungsspange 1914

[kane11]

Hi Together

I could by the following Wiederholungsspange 1914, but Iam not shure if it is a good one. I saw similar sold by militaria salespersons, but they have no Half Moon, Crown and 800 (for 800 silver) punches. Only the Joh.Wagner&SOHN BERLIN.W. I could get the Information that these Badges were not only made in silver-plated metal, they were also made in Silver. They also were not only made with splints on the backside, they also were made with buttstraps for the Iron Cross Ribbon. Very hard to decide, if it is a good one.

Thanks for your help!!!

Save your money. This one is a fake. A good fake but fake none the less.
Originals have a different pattern in the beading in the rectangular bar and also
the "W" and date are slightly different. I know because I have one just like it.

Originals are rare---I mean RARE, with only about 916 awarded. No one knows how many
were actually made but most people have guessed somewhere between 1000 -1200. I have
been looking for an original for over 20 years and so far all I have seen are pictures.
