Hilfskreuzerabzeichen. Real or fake ?

[shejken]

Hi.

Just won this one on an auction. I didn´t pay much for it. Absolutely not in mint condition, but in some way i like it.

I am a big boy, and i can accept if it turns out to be a fake.

What do you think, guys ?

Regards

Tommy.

Yep - Your assumptions are correct, IMO.........

[shejken]

Thanks Steve.

Do you mean its a fake, or in bad condition ?

Or both ?

Regards,

Tommy.

[Walkwolf]

Thanks Morris.

I can see what you mean. But the bad condition om my award confuses somewhat.

It would have been easier to spot if mine was in the same condition as the one that you posted.

Regards,

Tommy.

Fakers these days like to "beat"up awards so unlucky buyers will think it has, age, providence and has seen "some action".
