    It would be nice to see a couple of pictures taken straight on for a better view of the outlines.

    But,i'm not too keen on what i can see..The hingeblock is not the type that was used on Schwerin zinc awards.

    This badge has a combination of reverse hardware,a hingeblock seen on tombak awards and a circular catchplate that is seen on zinc awards.

    Not a good sign..

    Cheers,Martin.

    I wholeheartedly agree with you that there appears to be mixed signals coming from this badge Martin! I'm not seeing the top deck of portholes on the port side either, another bad sign I believe.

    Hi Guys,

    It's all been said. A known old fake that came with a couple of different reverse setups. Many differences from originals but especially easy to spot from the reverse because of the incorrect cutout around the eagle's head and the wrong maker maker with the "O" in "BOCK" sitting directly above the "B" in "BERLIN".

    Best regards,
    ---Norm
