My small Nazi badge collection.

[Johnny-D]

Hello all. I just thought I'd share with you my small collection of WW2 German badges and medals ect.

I'm a little unsure over the authenticity of the SS badges, and the Army Marksman badge. The latter has been repainted silver at some point sadly, but I've compared it by eye (although i'm no expert) and it looks ok. Any thought's would be appreciated.

Cheers,
JD

You were right to be dubious of the badges you mentioned.

The SS cap badges are fake. The marksmans award looks very soft detail wise, perhaps the paint does not help, but I think it is bad.

Cheers, Ade.

I believe the marksman award should be attached to the top of the marksmans lanyard and isn't a badge in it's own right in the form shown above.

You are correct ,the marksman badge is a fake

Cheers Ade, Ade and Chris. I thought they were questionable, although still a bit disapointed. Nevermind.

Everything else is ok though (I think)

I don't know if it is the photo perspective, but besides those mentioned already I also don't like the breast eagle. Sorry

Hi. I was told this was off a field cap!

Oh dear.... not a great start!

Johnny, they look similar, but of course the cap one is smaller. I didn't notice that from the pic due to small monitor (netbook). Still, I would like to check it closer, it appears mint but it has been badly cut

Ahh, sorry Matt, I didn't put anything in the pic for scale. My fault.

I'll take a couple of closer pics, and post in a few minutes. Thanks for your help mate.
