Thanks Doug for the info wasnt sure if I got the right forum for it, guy who I bought the lot let me have this and the 3 I posted for $40 he wasn't sure if real or fake, so far the infantry assault badge and general assault badge are real, I am sill waiting word on the panzer assault badge

$40! where do I find these deals???



From my resource book it looks like a good Juncker mid-war badge. Note also on the reverse side the fine curved line at the bottom of the badge - a die flaw found on these apparently.

If you decide to sell any of your badges, you could get yourself a good digital camera with macro feature? Just a thought

Ralph has a ton of these badges and is very knowledgeable. He may be waiting for sharper pictures though.
It's difficult to get them sometimes - I've been using my mobile phone and a DSLR camera but still sometimes get lousy pictures.
I think a digital compact with good macro features may be the way to go.

As mentioned you have a good original tombak Juncker.

A Bargain !!!
