    The wave pattern to the right of the spout is unique, I certainly don't recognise it........
    Best Regards,
    Adrian.

    Pics of the back if possible might help. Could this have been de-nazified post war? (In regards to lack of Swaz.)

    The pic is too unclear to see details. Don't know anything about this badge, but i am quite ok to spot fakes now. The "uniqueness" Adrian points out might be a hint on originality.

    The wave pattern and lack of a swastika don't make it look very good from here.

    LOOKING FOR:
    WWII-era British Battle Dress Jacket
    Functioning No. 4 Mk I or Mk I* Enfield Rifle
    Japanese Type 90 Helmet
    Functioning M1 Carbine or M1 Garand
    Soviet WWII-era M35 or M43 Gymnasterka
    WWII-era Soviet Flag

    Hi Guys,

    The photo is extraordinarily bad, but it's either a de-nazified R.K. Minesweeper or a copy of a de-nazified R.K. Minesweeper. The tale will be told in the reverse view.

    Best regards,
    ---Norm
