This is an unmarked Forster & Barth (L/21) Heer Flakkampfabzeichen and in my opinion is a nice original example. These are faked, but not particularly well and I see non of the associated problems here.
Regards, Ned.

That's a very nice award, I would not mind that one myself! I do not see any issues with it, so if the price were right I would "snap it up". Leon.
Thanks guys!
Price is not fixed. How many approximately the price?
I'll try to buy
Hello All,
Well Well, how peculiar.
This is the second one I have seen of these badges today in excellent condition another is displayed here:
Heeres-Flakabzeichen Förster & Barth - Wehrmacht-Awards.com Militaria Forums
This is also showing the mis aligned rear die that leaves an impression on the wreath and a thin/no edge on the bottom of the barrel. Again no L/21 lozenge on the pin.
Is this a recent hoard of defective badges or is it a new age fake? I guess only minute measurements would prove either way.
So apart from the rear die stamping my other concern is that slightly broader than normal hook.
This could be a good thread
All the best
Doug
